Care tips:


Let it sunbathe! Euphorbia ingens loves warmth and light, but keep it out of intense midday rays when outdoors. Water less in cooler months and never let it sit in soggy soil. Handle with gloves – its milky sap can irritate. Best grown in a cactus mix or free-draining compost in a snug pot to support its upright habit.


 


Why you’ll love it:


Its sculptural shape and effortless style bring desert-chic to any interior or garden nook.
