CARE GUIDE

How to keep Euphorbia Sarawschanica.

Water

Euphorbia sarawschanica needs to be watered regularly, especially during the growing seasons. In hot weather, it will require more frequent watering.

Watering from below can help prevent overwatering while maintaining the necessary moisture levels.

Pruning

Euphorbia sarawschanica is a hardy, drought-resistant plant known for its unique succulent leaves and vibrant flowers. To encourage growth and flowering, prune the plant in early spring. During pruning, remove any dead stems and maintain the plant's structure, taking care to wear gloves since the sap can be irritating.
