Product Description
Besides the religious significance of the Crown of Thorns, the plant also has a famous meaning of good luck engrained deeply in many beliefs. Therefore, those who grow the plant should always be blessed with lots of good luck. Crown of Thorns is a plant growing best in a sunny location. During periods of active growth, water when the soil surface becomes dry but when the plant is resting, keep it drier. Ideal temperatures are 62 to 65 degrees at night and 80 to 85 degrees during the day. The plant may be kept cooler during the winter. This is a very easy house plant to grow! Comments: Propagation is by cuttings. Allow the cuttings to dry before placement in the rooting medium.

 Was my fave housplant until..... December 18, 2008
Kate Witt (New Mexico, USA)
I had one as a child. I was SOOOOOO in love with it. I took great care of it, it bloomed like crazy. My friends were all jealous of my great plant. It was so gorgeous. And didn't get mad at me for forgetting the occasional watering.
Then we found out I was allergic to euphorbias and my mom got rid of it; I was VERY ticked off. But now I see her logic. Just don't let the sap touch your skin and you'll be fine. it's a common allergy, so if you do let the sap touch your skin you may end up with a poison ivy type rash. One of my least favorite childhood memories...picking a boquet of euphorbias and breaking out in crusty blisters that hurt so much I missed a week of school. See my review of mole-repelling plant.
 Awesome! June 2, 2007
Brittany D. Latalladi (Knoxville, Tennessee, USA)
I looked all over for a crown of thorns that was ALIVE, not one that was in a pot 4 times too small and already turning brown. I was kind of worried that this one I ordered from Hirt's would come in all droopy and stressed out from the week in shipping, but it showed up today absolutely beautiful! It was blooming and full, it looked happy! I am so thrilled...I've looked and looked for a healthy crown of thorns and I was so afraid this would be a let down, but it wasn't. I had never ordered a plant by mail before, either. Highly recommended.
