spurge

The best way to care for a Spurge (Euphorbia 'Imprefant' EFANTHIA) is to water it regularly and deeply. During the growing season, water it thoroughly once per week. During the winter, reduce watering to once every 2 to 3 weeks. Make sure to check that the soil has dried out between waterings, as too much water can cause root rot. Aim to keep the soil slightly moist, not drenched or dry. Feel the surface of the soil with your finger to determine whether or not you need to water. It's best to water your Spurge early in the day, so that any excess moisture has had a chance to evaporate. Also, avoid getting the foliage wet when watering your plant, as this will help prevent rot and fungus growth. Water directly into the pot's soil or in a saucer around the pot, never onto the foliage.

Spurge (Euphorbia 'Imperfecta' EFANTHIA) needs full sunlight to grow and thrive. The ideal amount of sunlight is 6-7 hours of direct sunlight and 8-10 hours of indirect bright light. The best time for spurge to get sunlight is in late morning when the sun is strong but without direct full sun exposure and again in the late afternoon. Morning and afternoon sun exposure of partial shade allows for gentle and consistent lighting that the plant needs to grow. However, direct sun exposure for too long can lead to leaf scorch for this particular species. It is important that the plants have access to the sunlight for at least 6 hours a day to be healthy and vibrant. In most cases, late morning and late afternoon sunlight work best for spurge 'Imperfecta' EFANTHIA.

When it comes to pruning for Euphorbia 'Imperfant' EFANTHIA, the general rule of thumb is to prune in early spring when the plants are beginning to grow and new growth appears. This species is generally a low-maintenance plant, so pruning can be kept to a minimum, however, selective pruning can be done to keep the plant healthy and looking its best. Pruning should be done as little as possible and only when necessary to control the shape and size of the plant. To keep the Euphorbia 'Imperfant' EFANTHIA looking its best and maintain its natural shape, pruning should be done so that no more than 25% of the plant is removed at any 1 time.
