Euphorbia belozhilkovy - one of the most popular euphorbias in room floriculture. It is quite often ranked as palm trees because of external similarity, but any relationship between it and palm trees is not present.
Some of the offered ways cannot multiply plant. The euphorbia belongs to very unpretentious plants, and can grow on any soils as well as its seeds. Having made the minimum efforts, in one or two years it is possible to receive one way or another full-fledged plant which well looks in composition and separate pot.
Reproduction by seeds
Most often the euphorbia breeds self-sowing as it blossoms often and is abundant, and seeds grow ripe and fall in its pot. After month from the beginning of blossoming in pot, as a rule, it is possible to observe 3-5 children. If not to control this process, already in half a year of dense young growth in pot it will become close, and to seat their accrete roots it will be very problematic. By then the most senior of children will begin to blossom, and the euphorbia will gradually move in all pots of windowsill.
That it has not occurred, it is possible to pull out peduncles before maturing of seeds as soon as the flower was closed (it is only obligatory to wash out after that hands and the tool as juice of euphorbia is poisonous). From one flower it is possible to receive from 1 to 4 seeds, at euphorbia usually does not happen to viability of problems. As soon as the sunflower seed has ascended if it has occurred in parental pot, it is necessary to land as soon as possible it in separate ware. The root at euphorbia long and branched, grows, as well as euphorbia, quickly, and in week after shoots to get small euphorbias, it is necessary to dig over half-pot.
Reproduction by shanks
Except reproduction by seeds, it is possible and to cherenkovat euphorbia. If to cut off top at adult plant, it will do it good, stimulating to branching. The branched belozhilkovy euphorbia looks much more decoratively and more interestingly, than growing in one trunk. Happens that the euphorbia begins to branch itself, without cutting, but it happens seldom and to very old plants. Cutting off top, even with such unpretentious plant as euphorbia it is necessary to follow some rules that both plants as a result have survived and are healthy. It is possible to cut off plants which not less than a year as only by this time the euphorbia has forces on branching. It is impossible to cut off euphorbia at the roots or to leave only thin trunk. Branch or give roots it is plant can only reinforced part of trunk on which the down has already appeared, leaves and edges are accurately visible. Cutting off euphorbia, on plant it is necessary to leave not less than 3 leaves. Before cutting do not water at least three days that there was no intensive sokotecheniye. Juice from cut is not wiped, it has to be curtailed and become transparent. After that cut it is abundant powder pounded wood charcoal. The cut-off shank dries on unnecessary paper or the napkin is from 6 to 10 hours old. Spots from its juice very difficult wash off from clothes. After this time the shank cut is powdered with coal too and put plant to take roots in clean sand or vermiculite. It is possible to implant euphorbia and in water, but results will be worse, than with vermiculite and sand.
