Euphorbia alluaudii

Description

Cylindrical, spineless branches make up this succulent shrub. Euphorbia leucodendron (Euphorbia alluaudii) is endemic to Madagascar, and produces the tiniest of green leaves at the tips of its stems. These little leaves quickly fall off, and their stipules leave behind small brown scales.

WATERING

Water when soil is dry 100%. Water lightly (if at all) during winter months.

LIGHT REQUIREMENTS

Full sun.

FEED

If not repotting then you can use a well-balanced cactus feed every month from April – September.

REPOTTING

Repot this plant every two years to replenish the soil and to allow extra room for the roots to spread out. Use a well-draining and gritty cactus compost.
