Description:

Named in 1894 by Ferdinand Albin Pax in 1894, the Euphorbia trichadenia is a perennial plant, characterized by a caudiciform base, which produces green herbaceous stems, branched at the base, which overall take on a hair-like appearance (hence its name 'trichadenia' from the Greek words "trichos" - "hair" and "aden" - "gland"). Narrow and acute leaves emerge from the stems, enriched, during the flowering season, by small, very particular greenish flowers.

Plant care:

It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sunlight especially during the hottest hours of the day.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 8 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, reduce watering to once every two months in autumn, and to suspend it completely in winter.

The perfect soil is a highly draining and porous one, for example a mixture of peat and pumice so that it does not stagnate the water.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
