First the treat. The flower of my Euphorbia enopla.  Just as well it's not grown for the flowers  Now for the naughty bit. I left the Euphorbia stellata out in the greenhouse too long last autumn/winter and it got well nipped by the frost. It has started to recover but it will take a while for it to replace the leaves that just died off. Frost damage is evident on all but two of the remaining leaves. Fingers crossed it doesn't take 20 years to fully recover   |

The Euphorbia are all out in the greenhouse now. It'll be interesting to see how they do. They've been putting on growth in the windowsills already. The magnificent imposing flowers of E. bisellenbeckii 😇  Hehe, Euphorbia are not really the plants to grow for imposing flowers are they. |

The new Euphorbia corner. Ignore any spaces as the way the plants are going they'll soon fill it.  E. flanaganii is keen to get on with it. The new arms are definitely getting bigger. There are five ofsets on this plant and they're not small ones, the small one is in its own pot.  |

The Euphorbia seedlings are coming along quite nicely. They're out in their new home so they have plenty headroom to be going at. E. cooperi
E. grandicornis

This E. mammillaris variegata arrived in winter ( see page 1) so it sat on the kitchen windowsill. Looking at it today in the greenhouse it must have doubled its height.   This E. mammillaris arrived this morning. It takes up a little more room than the above.  |

Sure has doubled in size , will it carry on growing throughout the summer or is it supposed to be a winter grower?

That is some impressive growth, considering it is variegated.
