First Story
24 august 2014
I don't know if this plant is ever going to get a common name. I really don't know what to call it. This is another spurge I acquired some time last year before I acquired my E. ritchiei. I had somehow neglected it for a year before I finally took a photo of it. Right now there are many pineapple-looking branches gathering around the main stem. Narrowly oblong leaves are plentiful on top of each pineapple. There isn't much I can say about this plant. I adore it. It's easy to grow. The only care instruction I wrote down is the minimum temperature of 12°C. I found spider mites on it this spring but got rid of them easily. If you want it to grow fast, make sure to water it before the soil gets too dry and feed it with some fertiliser occasionally. I use a cactus fertiliser and it seems to be fine.
