Candelabra Cactus 7G

Candelabra Euphorbia in 7-Gallon Pot available in Jupiter, FL.

Elevate your landscape with the bold, sculptural form of the Candelabra Euphorbia (Euphorbia ingens) in a 7-gallon pot. This striking, tree-like succulent features thick, columnar arms that branch upward in a candelabra-like shape, making it a natural statement piece for modern gardens, patio displays, or xeriscape beds.

Care & Growing Info (Optimized for South Florida):

• Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial sun. Needs 6–8+ hours of direct sunlight daily to grow strong and upright. Performs beautifully in exposed landscapes or south-facing patios.

• Watering: Extremely drought-tolerant. Water deeply but infrequently—only when the soil is completely dry. In South Florida’s rainy season, ensure excellent drainage to avoid root rot.

• Soil: Requires sharp-draining cactus or succulent soil. In pots, mix in extra sand or pumice. In humid zones, keep it airy and avoid dense, moisture-retentive soils.

• Fertilizer: Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted cactus fertilizer. Hold off on fertilizing in fall and winter.

• Growth Habit: Tall, upright, and branching—this euphorbia forms a symmetrical, tree-like silhouette. In a 7-gallon pot, it typically reaches 24–36 inches tall, with long-term growth potential if re-potted or planted in-ground.

• Temperature: Ideal for USDA Zones 10–11. Loves South Florida’s tropical heat and sun. Protect from temperatures below 40°F and avoid exposure to frost.

• Maintenance: Practically hands-free. Just avoid overwatering and handle with care—its milky sap is toxic and can irritate skin and eyes.

Ideal For:

• Modern landscape design

• Desert or drought-tolerant gardens

• Structural focal points in sunny areas

• Succulent collectors and architectural plant lovers
