Growth Rate
The Euphorbia polygona plant has a slow growth rate.
Flowering
This plant produces purple-yellow flowers that bloom in the spring-summer season. The attractive flowers are produced individually.
Watering and Feeding
Allow the soil to dry between watering. Check underneath the pot through the drainage holes to see if the roots are dry before watering the plant. If this is the case, then add some water. Water infrequently to avoid overwatering, which can kill the plant. During the spring and summer growing seasons, fertilize Euphorbia polygona every two weeks with a diluted balanced liquid fertilizer.
Soil
African milk barrel plants thrive in well-draining, sandy soil or a cactus potting mix. They are not picky about soil pH, but they do not like wet soil.
Hardiness
This succulent is cold-hardy and has a frost tolerance of -4° C (24.8° F). It belongs to the hardiness zone of 9 – 11.
Light
This Euphorbia species prefers full to partial shade sun exposure. Allow at least 3-5 hours of direct sunlight per day, and turn it on a regular basis to prevent your plant from growing disproportionately.
