How do I sow euphorbia outdoors?
To sow euphorbias outdoors, favour spring, once the risk of frost has passed. Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil. Before sowing, loosen the soil by carefully weeding and working it with a rake. Sow the seeds about 30 cm apart, covering them lightly with sieved soil. Keep the soil moist until the seeds emerge, which may take a few weeks. Once the plants have reached a few centimetres in height, thin them out, keeping only the most vigorous to encourage their development. Be sure to water the young plants regularly, without over-watering, to prevent rotting. Euphorbias are undemanding, hardy plants, but they can be sensitive to excess humidity. By following these simple tips, you can enjoy beautiful euphorbias in your garden without resorting to chemical fertilisers.
