🌱 How to Care for Diamond Frost Euphorbia to Prevent Grey Mould?
💧 How to Water
Water every 7 days on average, only when the top 2-3 inches of soil feel dry. Container plants may need more frequent watering in summer heat. Never allow the plant to sit in waterlogged soil as it is highly susceptible to root rot.
☀️ Lighting
Prefers full sun (6+ hours daily) for maximum blooming. Tolerates partial shade but produces fewer flowers. Indoors, place near a bright south- or west-facing window to maintain flowering.
🪴 Ideal Soil
Use lightweight, well-draining potting mix. A blend of regular potting soil with coarse sand or perlite works well. Avoid heavy, moisture-retaining soils that stay wet for extended periods.
