Euphorbia Lactea Dragon Bone

Important Safety Warning:

This plant, like all members of the Euphorbiaceae family, contains a thick, milky white sap (latex) that is highly toxic and corrosive.

Skin & Eye Irritation:

The sap can cause painful blisters, skin irritation, and severe inflammation or even temporary blindness if it comes into contact with your eyes.

Handling:

When pruning, repotting, or handling broken segments, always wear heavy-duty gloves and eye protection. Keep the plant entirely out of reach of children and curious pets.

Essential Care Guide:

Lighting:

Thrives in bright, direct sunlight to bright filtered light. Place it near a sunny southern or western window. If it doesn’t receive enough light, the new growth will become thin, pale, and weak.

Watering:

Treat it like a desert plant. Allow the soil mix to dry out completely between waterings. Water deeply until the fluid drains out the bottom, then empty the tray. Reduce watering significantly during winter.

Soil & Potting:

Requires a highly porous, well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix. It is currently in a plastic nursery liner. If you choose to repot it, always use a container with open drainage holes..
