Euphorbia tirucalli 'Firesticks'

Firesticks

Description

  Stunning architectural succulent shrub.  Gold coloured pencil like branches resembling coral, turn intense shades of orange to red during the cooler months.  Great as a feature in pots, or mass planted in the garden for striking winter colour. Prune lightly to maintain shape, but note the sap is highly irritating to skin and eyes, wear protection when pruning and take care when handling. Euphorbia 'Firesticks' is tolerant of drought, salt and dry winds.  Prefers a hot, dry location in very well drained soil.  Water only sparingly if in a pot, if planted in the ground no water other than rainfall is required.
