My spiky-baby EXPLODED this summer! 😊😁

It’s getting tall and I have no ID for it. I love its blueish green colors and the pattern in the middle.

What type of Euphorbia is this?

Euphorbia globosa 

Say what you will, but I really like the way the lichen looks on my Euphorbia branches. I think it gives a rugged look, and it doesn't seem to be bothered by it.

Just worried it's in jeopardy, had it for 4 years now, the main plant seems fine somewhat soft but nothing I'd consider like rot, it gets plenty sun, I live in Texas

Worried for my Medusa 

Is this little guy doing okay? 

I don’t know much about it but I notices that my cactus is getting Brown spots and I’m pretty sure that the bottom part is getting thinner…. Also the dirt seams to always get white even if I remove all the white spots. What should I do?
(Sorry if bad English it’s not my first language)

Is this an euphorbia ferox?

Euphorbia francoisii hybrid, Maple spoon-shaped Maroon red coloration with nice veins

Euphorbia pseudoglobosa

Milk cactus roots all rotten away.

What should I do? Prune? Repot? 

ID help with this huge E. milii. 

ID help? 4 sides, semi-wavy body, spines, 4.5ft tall, beginning to branch. Thanks!! 

So I got the smaller Euphorbia obesa and mammillaris variegata recently and I’ve had the bigger Trigona for a while. we got it when it was at around the middle skinny part (40oz water bottle for scale). Are they all more or less the same care? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Advice for new Ephorbia

Watering my Diamond Frost Euphorbia

Hey! I got this cactus guy a month ish ago and i am not really sure what to do with him. He hasn’t really changed much since I got him. I know he’s elongated(?) from lack of light but he was like that when I received him. Any recommendations on what to do? I got told he needs full direct sunlight and I cannot provide that I don’t think. I have him in a west facing window and I am not sure if that’ll be enough for him to thrive. I do have another window but it’s lower to the ground and I am afraid my cats/ dog will try to eat him etc. 🙄 oh, it’s also like snowing where I am at so he can’t go outside until summer time. Do you guys think he will be fine for winter months and he can be the outside guy or should I try to see if someone around me can care for him better? 
- I also accidentally dropped him moving other plants next to him so his little top got a little broken. I did repot him into a thicker pot to avoid that but he did stab me in the process lol so

Observing my plants and found these flowers interesting. Is this moisture normal?

E. Obesa flowers are… moist?

Super cool Euphorbia on Koh Larn, Thailand!

I just learned this the existence of the sub and species! I have reason to believe my guy is in this family. If he is, anyone know the species? I have trouble finding info.

He grows leaves in the winter and drops them in the summer as I assume he's African or Australian. He also arches down when thirsty (he's a bit thirsty here, but he's capable of touching the ground when completely deprived of water).

Can anyone ID? 

Hi team - my white rocket seems to be struggling and im not sure what im doing wrong. His hair spikes are slowly turning yellow then brown and dying, and the small growth up and down the main trunk are browning as well. Any ideas?

He gets easily 6 hours of indirect sunlight and 4-6 of direct light. I water it maybe once every 2-3 weeks. Soil is mostly succulent mix wirh some perlite mixed in, terracota pot.

My friend is struggling - any advice?

I got this crown of thorns about a month ago. Every few days for the past few weeks, this crown of thorns has dropped a yellow leaf. At the same time, all of these flowers are brand new and looking great. It has yet to put out a new leaf. 

I’ve got it under a spider farmer grow light for ~ 14 hours a day that is keeping all of my other succulents happy and compact, but is this too much light? 

I’m letting it dry out ~90% before watering, which is happening roughly every 5 -7 days.

Crown of thorns - new flowers, but lots of leaf drop. 

Hello all! I have been accumulating my share of cool plants lately, all thanks to this milk tree. It was my gateway drug. It was recently moved across the country to the PNW and seems to be happy as can be. We are currently learning how to use grow lights since we don’t live in a sunny place anymore, hence the weird location and lighting.

Anyway, I want to try and cut this to both start a new one as well as encourage some new arms to start at the top. If I cut at the top where the arrow is pointing, would that be okay? I wasn’t sure if cuttings need to be short or if that 10-12” section would be okay. 

Thanks in advance!

Propagation help

Ok guys im new to this whole world. I recently bought this little friend and I first thought it was a cactus, but apparently no.
Is there someone so nice to make an Id to him? Does he look healthy to your expert eyes? And what should I do to make him more happy? 
Ps: in your opinion, should i give him a single name or name every head? 
And also, is that little brown thing a seed?

I need your help 💚

Another one of my cylindrifolia tubiferas

Euphorbia virosa

The plant has no excess of water and the ambient humidity is low (winter without rain). So, what can I do?

Fungus infection

This plant keeps growing and growing, but I've had to prop him up with the little pink pot because otherwise he lays down. I recently reported and he has a great mix for drainage and such, but his root system is not sufficient to hold all of his sprawling glory. If this was your plant, would you cut back some growth to balance him out and channel energy to roots? If you would cut, how much? Thanks :)

Euphorbia Grandicornis can't support himself... should I prune him back?
