Re: Euphorbia


oh - and do you think maybe the lowest new eyes should go below soil surface?

My Euphorbia polychroma throws off lots of seedlings. Sometimes I dig them
up to sell.  I'm doing that now for next year's sale.  It can be difficult
to get the whole taproot, but I try.  And yet, that doesn't seem to be the
answer to successful overwintering. About 1/2 of them don't make it and I'm trying to figure out how to do it better. Most of the E. dulcis Chameleon
make it, but E polys are the ones people ask for. And it's not size.
Sometimes big ones survive, sometimes little ones.  Any ideas?

I'm hoping that my E Tiny Tim and E Tasmanian Tiger will someday throw off
some volunteers too.
