This euphorbia is from arid areas of Kenya and as such likes to go totally bone dry between waterings, making them very low-maintenance. To get good healthy growth your plant doesn't want to sit around totally dried out during its growing season. Once it is dry, water it. This plant comes from an area with summer rainfall and is actively growing during that time, when it is forgiving of overwatering errors. During winter dormancy it should be kept extra dry and will be intolerant of overwatering. Remember that if kept in a small pot your plant will want more frequent watering. If your plant isn't growing leaves during summer you are probably underwatering. | |
