Pros and cons

According to our plant experts

Pro: Set of two: one green and one red, a striking pair together.
Pro: Needs very little water.
Pro: Neat, columnar growth that suits a modern interior.
Con: The milky sap is toxic and irritates the skin and eyes.
Con: Small thorns along the ribs; not ideal in a spot where you brush past.

Details

Set of two Euphorbia plants, in green and red, both 75 cm high. Architectural cactus-like succulents with a striking feathered structure. Perfect for lovers of unique houseplants.

Species: Euphorbia trigona · Height: 75 cm (including nursery pot) · Pot size: ø17 cm

This set consists of two Euphorbia trigona plants, a green and a red-coloured variety, each 75 cm tall including the grower's pot and in a pot of ø17 cm. The upright, three-sided stems have short spines along the ridges and small leaves, which gives the plant a cactus-like look, although it's actually a spurge.

Side by side they create a graphic contrast in green and red at a sunny window in the living room or hallway. Give them as much light as possible. The stems store water, so water sparingly and let the soil dry out completely in between, even less in winter. The white sap irritates skin and eyes and is toxic to cats and dogs, so wear gloves when repotting.

Delivery

Shipping a two-metre plant takes more than a box and some tape. That's why we do it differently from an ordinary online shop.

How your plant arrives in one piece

Fresh from the greenhouse
Your plant does not sit in a warehouse for weeks. The grower only takes it out of the greenhouse after you order and prepares it straight away.
Packed securely
In a box made for plants. Plant and soil are secured and a protective sleeve keeps the leaves intact, so nothing shifts on the way.
Protected from heat and frost
Is it very hot or freezing outside? Then we add a cold pack or heat pack to the box, so the weather doesn't affect your plant on the way.
The right carrier for every size
Smaller plants are delivered by PostNL or DHL. The very largest plants travel upright on a pallet with a specialist carrier.
You know exactly when it arrives
As soon as your plant is on its way, you receive track & trace by email, so you can make sure someone is home and, for a large plant, someone to help carry it in.

When will your plant arrive?

4–5working days after you order

★★★★Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd

Het mag wel wat plant vriendelijker worden bezorgd. De plant kwam een beetje beschadigd aan. Door dat de bladeren op een onjuiste manier in de doos waren gestopt. Verder is het een mooie plant.

★★★★★Goede service en een mooie plant

Ik ben blij verrast! Een mooie uitziende plant en goed verpakt ontvangen. Bij de mededeling vroeg ik of zij wilde kijken naar een rechtopstaande plant en als het kan iets groter dan aangegeven maat. Daar heeft de kweker ook goed...

Frequently asked questions about Euphorbia trigona

The questions we're asked most about this plant. Can't find yours? Our plant experts are happy to help.

Ask your question

What kind of plant is a Euphorbia trigona?

A Euphorbia trigona is a succulent spurge from Africa that looks like a cactus, with three-sided stems, small spines and elongated leaves along the ribs. It is not a true cactus. At XXLplant you buy a set of two plants, one green and one red (Euphorbia trigona 'Rubra'), each 75 cm tall.

Where should you put a Euphorbia trigona?

Put your Euphorbia trigona in a bright spot, ideally with some direct morning sun. The more light it gets, the sturdier it grows and the better the red colour holds. In a spot that is too dark it will grow crooked and thin.

How often should you water a Euphorbia trigona?

Give a Euphorbia trigona very little water, and only when the soil is completely dry. In summer that's usually once every two to three weeks, in winter hardly at all. Too much water is the main cause of rot in this plant.

Is a Euphorbia trigona toxic?

Yes, the white milky sap of the Euphorbia trigona is toxic and irritates the skin and eyes. Wear gloves when repotting or taking cuttings and keep it out of reach of children and pets.

How big does a Euphorbia trigona get?

Indoors a Euphorbia trigona can reach 1.5 to 2 metres or more after some years. The plants in this set are 75 cm tall, measured including the nursery pot, in a ø17 cm pot. The taller it gets, the more important a sturdy pot becomes, because the plant can become top-heavy.

Why is my Euphorbia trigona losing its leaves?

A Euphorbia trigona often drops its small leaves in winter, in lower light or after a move. That is normal: the stems stay green or red and new leaves appear in spring. If the stems themselves turn soft, it is getting too much water.
