Feed Monthly

Spathiphyllum Sensation is a specific cultivar of the Spathiphyllum genus, commonly known as the peace lily. It is renowned for its large size and striking appearance.

Size and Appearance: Spathiphyllum Sensation is known for its impressive size. It can grow up to 1.2 to 1.8 meters in height, with lush, dark green foliage. The leaves are glossy, elongated, and have a prominent ribbing pattern.

Flowers: Like other peace lilies, Spathiphyllum Sensation produces beautiful white flowers. The flowers consist of a white, hood-like spathe that surrounds the central spadix. The spadix is typically a creamy yellow colour and contains numerous tiny flowers.

Lighting Requirements: Spathiphyllum Sensation thrives in bright, indirect light. However, it can tolerate lower light conditions, making it suitable for areas with moderate to low light levels. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

Temperature and Humidity: This plant prefers average room temperatures ranging from 18-29°C. It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures but should be protected from drafts. Spathiphyllum Sensation appreciates higher humidity levels, so misting the leaves or placing a humidifier nearby can be beneficial.

Watering: Keep the soil of Spathiphyllum Sensation consistently moist but not waterlogged. It’s essential to avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Water the plant when the top inch (2.5 cm) of soil feels slightly dry.

Soil and Fertiliser: Use well-draining, porous soil that retains some moisture. A mixture of peat moss, perlite, and potting soil can be suitable. Fertilise the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) using a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser diluted to half strength.

Pruning and Maintenance: Prune any yellow or dying leaves to maintain the plant’s appearance and overall health. Regularly wipe the leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and maintain their glossy appearance.

Euphorbia Trigona 30cm Pot
Common Name: African Milk Tree, Cathedral Cactus

Euphorbia trigona, commonly known as African milk tree or cathedral cactus, is a striking succulent plant native to tropical regions of Africa.

Appearance
Euphorbia trigona has a distinctive appearance with tall, columnar stems that are segmented and resemble a candelabra or cathedral spires. The stems are usually green, but they can take on reddish or purplish hues under certain conditions. Small leaves may appear on new growth, but they are quickly shed.

Light
This plant prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight. Place it near a window where it can receive plenty of natural light. Too little light may cause the plant to become leggy, while too much direct sunlight can lead to sunburn.

Temperature
Euphorbia trigona thrives in temperatures between 18°C to 29°C and should be protected from temperatures below 10°C. It is not frost-tolerant and should be brought indoors if temperatures drop below its preferred range.

Watering
Water Euphorbia trigona sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it’s important to let the soil dry completely before watering again. During the winter months, reduce watering frequency as the plant goes into a dormant period.

Soil
Plant Euphorbia trigona in a well-draining cactus or succulent potting mix. A mix of potting soil, perlite, and coarse sand works well to ensure good drainage.

Humidity
Euphorbia trigona is adapted to low humidity environments and does not require additional humidity. However, it can benefit from occasional misting during very dry conditions.

Fertilising
Feed Euphorbia trigona with a balanced liquid fertiliser diluted to half strength during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilising during the winter months when growth slows down.

Pruning
Trim back any dead or damaged stems as needed. Be cautious when handling the plant as it produces a milky sap that can be irritating to the skin and eyes. Wear gloves and avoid contact with the sap.
