Euphorbia corollata, commonly known as flowering spurge, is a perennial plant native to North America. It belongs to the Euphorbiaceae family and is known for its small, white flowers that bloom in clusters. This plant thrives in temperate climates and is often found in prairies, open woods, and along roadsides. It has a dormancy period during the winter months.
Flowering spurge prefers bright, direct sunlight and moderate temperatures. It should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. This plant does well in average humidity levels and can tolerate a range of temperatures, though it prefers moderate conditions.
Bodem
Euphorbia corollata thrives in well-draining loam soil. It can tolerate poor soil conditions but prefers a moderate nutrient concentration. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging.
Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically in spring and summer, to promote healthy growth.
Verpotten
Repot Euphorbia corollata every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current container. Choose a pot with good drainage and use a well-draining soil mix. Repotting is best done in early spring before the growing season begins.
Voortplanting
Propagate flowering spurge through seed or stem cuttings. For stem cuttings, take a cutting in late spring or early summer, allow it to dry for a day, and then plant it in well-draining soil. Keep the soil slightly moist until roots develop.
Snoeien
Prune Euphorbia corollata in late winter or early spring to remove dead or damaged stems and to shape the plant. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages new growth.
Toxiciteit
All parts of Euphorbia corollata are toxic if ingested and can cause skin irritation. The milky sap is particularly irritating and can cause severe discomfort if it comes into contact with skin or eyes. It is toxic to both pets and humans.
Aanvullend
When handling Euphorbia corollata, wear gloves to protect your skin from the irritating sap. This plant is drought-tolerant once established and can be a good choice for xeriscaping.
