House Plant Wholesale Succulent Euphorbia Dragon Bone

This plant thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. While it can handle some filtered sun, avoid harsh, direct rays that might scorch its unique, ribbed skin.

No, the Euphorbia lactea contains a milky, white sap that is toxic if ingested and can cause skin or eye irritation. It is best to place this plant in a location that is out of reach for curious pets and children.

As a succulent, it prefers to dry out between waterings. Allow the soil to dry completely before watering again, and be careful not to let it sit in standing water, which can lead to root rot.

While it grows slowly, the Dragon Bone can eventually reach several feet in height over many years. Its sculptural, branching habit makes it a great statement piece, but you may need to repot it into a larger container as it matures.

Use a well-draining cactus or succulent potting mix. This ensures that excess water moves through the pot quickly, mimicking the arid conditions this plant prefers.
