Euphorbia mayurnathanii is a distinctive succulent species within the Euphorbiaceae family, originating from India. This plant features an intense green stem adorned with pronounced ribs, along which pairs of short, robust thorns emerge. It produces small green leaves that are short-lived but renew quickly. During the summer flowering period, it showcases yellow flowers, adding a touch of vibrancy to its appearance.
Native to: India.
Water: As a succulent, Euphorbia mayurnathanii is drought-tolerant and requires infrequent watering. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot. During the active growing season (spring and summer), water sparingly, and reduce watering further during the dormant winter months.
Light: This plant thrives in abundant, bright light and can tolerate direct sunlight. Placing it near a south- or west-facing window is ideal to ensure it receives sufficient light. Insufficient light may lead to weak, leggy growth.
Humidity: Euphorbia mayurnathanii is well-suited to average indoor humidity levels and does not require additional humidity. Ensure good air circulation to prevent potential fungal issues.
Temperature: Preferring warm environments, this plant thrives at temperatures around 27°C during the day. It is sensitive to cold and should be kept in temperatures above 13°C. Avoid exposure to drafts or sudden temperature fluctuations.
Caution: The milky sap of Euphorbia mayurnathanii is toxic and can cause skin irritation. Always wear gloves when handling the plant, and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
