Euphorbia Decaryi, Exotic Mini Plant From Madagascar
Euphorbia Decaryi is an exotic mini plant. This plant is only about 6 inches tall with textured stems. The leaves of Euphorbia Decaryi are also unique, their shape is zigzag edged green leaves.
According to wikipedia.org, this plant is a species of plant in the family Euphorbiaceae endemic to Madagascar. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical dry shrubland, and rocky areas. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The flowers of Euphorbia Decaryi are chartreuse, yellow-green, yellow, or red; female flowers carry a three-part pistil over a three-part ovary, producing three or sometimes more seeds.
Planting Euphorbia Decaryi
This plant is very easy to breed from seeds or cuttings. If you want to make this flower as a room decoration, you can do stem cuttings and place them in small pots. You can choose a cute pot to make this plant look more attractive. Use a very draining loose compost which mainly consists of non-organic material such us clay, pumice, lava grit, and only a little peat or leaf-mold. Based on my experience, this mini-plant can also grow well on media that is not too dry.
Euphorbia Decaryi is a slow-growing plant. You will see little growth within a year, so repotting can take 2-4 years. After a long time, new shoots will grow.
