Full sun encourages optimal growth and spine development. * Watering: Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch. Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings to prevent root rot. * Soil: Requires well-draining cactus mix with added perlite or pumice for optimal drainage. * Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 70°F and 85°F (21°C to 29°C). Not frost-tolerant, so it should be protected from freezing temperatures. * Dormancy: Euphorbia ferox is generally dormant during the cooler months and requires minimal watering. * Propagation: Can be propagated by stem cuttings or seeds. * Pests: Generally pest-resistant but may occasionally attract mealybugs or aphids.
