Botanical Name:
Euphorbia inermis
Common Names:
Medusa Head Plant
Plant Category:
Succulent
Plant/Product Description:
Euphorbia inermis, commonly known as Medusa Head Plant, is a striking succulent that features a highly unique growth pattern. The plant has numerous, twisting, spiny stems that radiate outward in a dramatic, serpentine arrangement, resembling the mythical Medusa's hair. The stems are a dull green with reddish hues at the tips, adding to the plant’s otherworldly appearance. Medusa Head Plant is perfect for adding an exotic touch to succulent arrangements or rock gardens, as its fascinating form stands out among other plants. During the growing season, it produces small, yellow flowers, although the plant is primarily grown for its distinctive, sculptural shape.
Plant Care Notes:
- Sunlight: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight. Too much direct sun may scorch the stems.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch. Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings to prevent root rot.
- Soil: Requires well-draining cactus or succulent mix with added perlite or pumice for optimal drainage.
- Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 70°F and 85°F (21°C to 29°C). Not frost-tolerant and should be protected from freezing temperatures.
- Dormancy: Euphorbia inermis is dormant in the winter, requiring minimal water during this period.
- Propagation: Can be propagated by stem cuttings or seeds.
- Pests: Generally pest-resistant but may occasionally attract mealybugs or aphids.
Toxicity:
Euphorbia inermis is toxic if ingested and may cause skin irritation, so it should be kept out of reach of children and pets.
