African Milk tree, Euphorbia trigona 4″ inch pot, Red Original Color African Milktree, Red Cathedral Cactus Milk Tree, Well Rooted Starter

African Milk Tree ( Euphorbia Trigona ) is a mix between a cactus and a succulent with both traits. Their thick stem grows vertically upward with stems and thorns attached. It is native to Africa, where they thrive in a dry climate.

African milk tree is a common houseplant used for indoor decoration or outdoor landscapes. They thrive in full sun to partial shade and appreciate sandy soil. Allow the soil to dry before watering them, and make sure there is an excellent draining hole to prevent root rot.

Fertilizing them once a month during their growing season using a diluted water-soluble fertilizer will help them grow faster. You can propagate this plant via stem cuttings. African milk trees are toxic to humans and pets, so do not mingle with them.

You can grow them in USDA Hardiness Zones 9b-11.

    Came today I was so excited it had four pieces broken off but I’m hoping to put them in soil and they will root. Other than that they look healthy the box looked as though it had been smushed. But it is ok.

    My cactus plant came well wrapped with a heat pack that I didn’t even purchase! The leaves are a bit browned, possibly due to cold. Other than that, everything was great!

    Very happy! At first when I received my plant I didn’t understand why it was only a cup. After some research I discovered that this was the method to use. Have plant the cup in a good potting soil and it takes root!
