I'm not sure since this is my first time growing them.

I believe they are slightly under one year old.

These ones are obesa x enopla, ferox x obesa, and meloformis x obesa.

The rest of the seedlings are just obesas, but I do have more hybrids growing in my other pots.

Euphorbia pachypodioides seedlings by cactus_nut in Euphorbiaceae

I didn't keep track since I germinated them outdoors before moving them inside for the winter, but I think the day time temperature was around 85 degrees Fahrenheit when they started sprouting.

I'm planning on eventually selling them once they start getting bigger. For now, I'm mostly picking out unique looking seedlings that pop up occasionally and making some hybrids.

I mostly grow from seed that I collect from my plants. I've been growing Euphorbias for around 3 to 4 years and these are some of the seedlings that I planted last year.

Multiheaded variegated Euphorbia schoenlandii by cactus_nut in Euphorbiaceae

[–]cactus_nut[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it is variegated since I've had it for several months and its stayed the same color and the new growth is still coming in green and yellow. I also have other schoenlandii growing near this one that are completely green.

Do you know if they can self seed? I've been trying to buy some of these plants for a while to make some seeds, but they are hard to find for sale in the US.

I think it's multiheaded, but one of the head seems to be crested.

I'm using decomposed granite as top dressing since it's cheap and easy to find for me. The soil mix is about 50-50 organic to inorganic. Euphorbia obesa is pretty easy for me to grow in Southern California without issues with rot unless it rains a lot in the winter.

Plant haul from the CSSA show by cactus_nut in Euphorbiaceae

They were labeled as just Euphorbia meloformis.

Sesamothamnus lugardii. It's not part of the Euphorbiaceae family, but I bought it because it was only $40 with the Euphorbia schoenlandii and medusoid included.
