CULTURAL CARE

Plant Euphorbia 'Blackbird' in most soil types with good drainage. Euphorbias do not like to sit in water for lengthy periods of time.

Feed in spring with a slow release fertiliser. Pruning generally not required although cutting back spent flower stems to base will encourage a bushier habit. Take care when pruning to avoid skin contact with the milky sap as it can be irritating to some - wear gloves. Dispose of cuttings.
