Euphorbia Tithymaloides 'Albo'

The Euphorbia Tithymaloides 'Albo', also known as White-Variegated Devil’s Backbone or Jacob’s Ladder, is a striking succulent plant prized for its zig-zag stems and beautiful white variegation. This plant is an excellent choice for collectors who appreciate unique foliage and an easy-care growth habit.

🌿 Care Instructions:

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light to full sun. If grown indoors, place near a south- or west-facing window for optimal growth.

• Watering: Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water sparingly, as Euphorbia species are drought-tolerant and susceptible to root rot.

• Soil: Prefers a well-draining cactus or succulent mix with added perlite or sand for aeration.

• Temperature: Enjoys warm temperatures between 65°F-85°F (18°C-29°C). It is not frost-hardy and should be kept above 50°F (10°C).

• Humidity: Prefers a dry climate and does not require extra humidity. Avoid excessive moisture to prevent fungal issues.

• Fertilizing: Feed with a diluted cactus fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).

• Growth & Size: This plant can grow 2-3 feet (60-90 cm) tall, with its zigzag stems creating a sculptural effect.

• Pests/Diseases: Generally resistant to pests, but keep an eye out for mealybugs and spider mites. Overwatering can lead to root rot.

• Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans. The milky sap is a skin irritant, so handle with care and wash hands after touching.

🌟 Fun Fact:

This plant is part of the Euphorbia family, which includes many species that resemble cacti but are actually succulents with milky sap instead of water storage.
