Name: Tanzanian Zipper Plant
Availability: OutOfStock

Description

Resembling a spineless cactus, this Euphorbia is a small, leafless, clumping succulent which forms a colony of ribbed columns. The columns are typically variegated whitish green to green, and the plant will bloom with tiny purple flowers. Native to Tanzania, this plant has the common name “Zipper Plant” thanks to its unusual striping pattern on its edges, which give the appearance of a zipper.

An interesting houseplant, but also wonderful in rock gardens or cactus gardens. If grown indoors, provide bright light, or grow outdoors in light shade. Partial sun will help it keep a compact shape. Provide a porous soil with adequate drainage and water about once a week, keeping mostly dry in winter. Otherwise, requires little attention and will easily grow. As with all Euphorbias, handle with care as this plant has a toxic sap.

NOTE: Euphorbia’s are for ornamental purposes only. The milky sap can be toxic and can cause adverse reactions if it comes into contact with the skin or eyes. Do not ingest. Euphorbias do not typically require pruning or maintenance, but take care when handling.

PACKING

All plants are removed from their pots and all soil cleaned away as this is the safest and cleanest way of shipping. Succulents are extremely hardy, and this will not harm your plants but will just appear "dry and thirsty". Easy instructions on how to repot and care for your succulents are included with every order.

By preparing your plants with bare roots helps comply with quarantine regulations and also minimises shipping costs to our customers, making Ezy Care Succulents a very cost-effective way of purchasing your plants.

All orders are packaged with environmentally friendly recycled paper to ensure safe freight and reduce damage to the plant.

GENERAL INFOMRATION

Only the healthiest, top quality plants are selected from the Ezy Care Succulents nursery for your order. The size, colour, and shape of your shipment may vary according to the season, or when shipping to colder areas. All succulents are slightly dried prior to packaging and may look different to the photo. Preparation instructions are included in every order which are specific to the plants that you have ordered, and usually only take a few days to recover.
