Questions about the Jade Cactus Trio 2½-3 FT TALL Large Plant Only
Bring the beauty of the desert home with the Jade Cactus, also known as Euphorbia Ingens or Candelabra Tree. With an attractive columnar structure that branches as it matures, the Jade Cactus is as low-maintenance as they come: plenty of bright light and minimal watering is all it requires to thrive.
What is corking, and is it normal?
Corking is a natural process that occurs as Euphorbia ingens matures. It often appears as a woody, brownish texture at the base of the plant. This phenomenon helps support the plant as it grows taller and is common in aging cacti and succulents, particularly in their natural habitats. Corking is not a sign of disease or poor health, so there’s no need to worry if you notice this on your plant.
How fast does the Jade Cactus grow?
Euphorbia ingens is a slow to moderate grower. Under ideal conditions, it can grow a few inches per year. Growth rates may vary depending on light, watering, and overall care.
Does my Jade Cactus need to be repotted?
Repotting is only necessary every 2-3 years or when the plant has outgrown its pot. Choose a pot with drainage holes and use a well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix.
Can I prune my Jade Cactus?
Yes, pruning is possible to shape the plant or remove damaged areas. Always wear gloves and use sanitized tools to avoid irritation from the plant’s sap. Prune sparingly to maintain the plant’s natural aesthetic.
Why is my Jade Cactus leaning or drooping?
Leaning or drooping may indicate insufficient light or unstable roots. Ensure the plant is receiving adequate light and check that it’s securely rooted in the soil. If necessary, stake the plant temporarily to support it.
