Plant Care Instructions:
- Light: Euphorbia Pulcherrima Rosy Pink thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct sunlight but should be protected from intense midday sun to prevent bract discoloration.
- Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but avoid waterlogging. Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry. During winter, reduce watering as the plant’s growth slows down.
- Soil: Plant in well-draining soil. A mix of garden soil, compost, and perlite works well to prevent waterlogging and ensure healthy root development.
- Fertilization: Feed the plant with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) to support vibrant foliage and bract color. Avoid excessive fertilization, which can lead to excessive leaf growth.
- Pruning: Prune after the blooming season to maintain the plant’s shape and remove any spent bracts or flowers. Pruning encourages new growth and helps keep the plant looking neat and tidy.
Common Problems and Solutions:
- Bract Drop: If the pink bracts start to drop, it may be due to environmental stress, such as sudden changes in temperature or light conditions. Ensure the plant is in a stable environment with consistent care.
- Pests: Euphorbia Pulcherrima Rosy Pink can attract pests like aphids and spider mites. Regularly inspect the plant and treat any infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
- Root Rot: Overwatering can lead to root rot. Ensure the soil has good drainage and allow it to dry out between waterings. If root rot occurs, trim affected roots and repot the plant in fresh soil.
