Assorted Crown of Thorns (Euphorbia milii)

Crown of Thorns is a tough, sun-loving succulent that delivers long-lasting color with very little day-to-day maintenance. Its bright bracts keep showing up in waves through much of the year when it gets strong light, making it a reliable flowering houseplant for sunny windows. The spiny stems and sturdy habit give it a bold, sculptural look that holds its shape instead of wilting or flopping. Because this is an assorted selection, flower color and exact growth habit can vary, but the easy-care performance stays consistent.

Distinctive Features

This plant combines thick, thorny stems with small leaves and showy, long-lasting bracts that may be red, pink, yellow, orange, or creamy tones depending on the cultivar. It can bloom repeatedly with bright light, and it tolerates dry indoor air better than many flowering plants. The milky sap is irritating and the spines are sharp, so it is best placed where it will not be brushed by kids or pets.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Full sun outdoors and the sunniest possible window indoors, with bright light essential for steady flowering.
  • Soil: Fast-draining cactus or succulent mix, and never allow the pot to sit in water.
  • Water: Let the mix dry down between waterings, then water thoroughly and drain, reducing frequency in winter.
  • Zones: USDA Zones 9 to 11 outdoors, typically grown as a houseplant elsewhere.
  • Mature Size: About 1 to 3 feet tall and 1 to 2 feet wide indoors, and potentially larger in warm outdoor climates.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Use as a focal point in a bright window where the bract color and sculptural stems can stand out year-round.
  • Sunny Windowsills: Place in high light areas where many houseplants struggle, especially south or west exposures.
  • Containers: Grow in pots with sharp drainage for a clean, upright accent that stays neat and contained.
  • Dry Indoor Spaces: Use in rooms with lower humidity where flowering plants often disappoint.
  • Warm Patio Seasonal Accent: Move outdoors to full sun after frost for a tough, blooming container plant in summer.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: Water sparingly and always let the soil dry, since overwatering is the most common cause of decline.
  • Pruning: Prune lightly to shape and encourage branching, wearing gloves and avoiding contact with sap.
  • Handling: Wear gloves and eye protection when cutting, and keep sap away from skin and eyes.
  • Light: Increase light if bloom slows and stems stretch, rotating the pot for even growth.
  • Temperature: Protect from cold drafts and avoid exposing the plant to temperatures near freezing.

Why Choose Crown of Thorns?

  • Repeat Color: Produces long-lasting bracts in recurring flushes when given strong light.
  • Drought Tolerance: Handles missed waterings better than most flowering houseplants.
  • Sun Window Friendly: Thrives in bright exposures where many indoor plants struggle with heat and light.
  • Architectural Form: Spiny stems and upright structure add a bold, sculptural look year-round.
  • Easy Routine: Simple care, bright light and dry-down watering, keeps it performing reliably.

Crown of Thorns is ideal when you want a flowering plant that behaves like a succulent: resilient, sun-happy, and not needy. Give it sharp drainage, strong light, and a dry-down watering rhythm, and it will reward you with repeat color and a clean, sculptural silhouette. Place it thoughtfully for safety, and it becomes a durable indoor statement plant that keeps earning its spot.

Best book for beginners to learn safe practices in single pitch climbing
Format: Paperback
Great book for beginner climbers, especially those who want to set up top ropes. Goes over anchor setup, knots, gear placement, belaying, rappelling, etc. Lots of good photos. Very easy to read, don’t be put off by the description as a “manual”, and worth reading to learn how to do things safely. It’s definitely not just for those who want to guide or take AMGA courses. If you are debating getting this book or “Top roping” by the same author, get this one, as it contains 100% of the content in the other book (much of the exact same text and photos) and more, and is just as easy to read. In fact, this has a ton of overlap (and many of the same photos) with “Climbing Anchors” which the author co-authored, but is more accessible and spans a wider range of content. If you are the “leader” of your beginner climbing friends or even if you have some experience but want to take a beginner climbing outside, this is a must read.

Perfect reference guide
Format: Paperback
I bought this book to supplement my lessons with an AMGA guide to learn how to set up toprope climbs. I used it many times to practice and reinforce everything I learned. It is really well written and my favorite book in terms of the knowledge contained within. As common sense would dictate this is not a book to teach your how to toprope...it is a reference to what you have learned?

Essential To Read Before the Class
Format: Paperback
This book provides a good overview of what you'll need to know for your AMGA Single Pitch Instructor (SPI) course and assessment. If you plan to take that course this book is a no-brainer. You just have to buy it and read it. There are a few shortcomings: * The photos of how to tie the knots skip a lot and it is impossible to learn the knots from the book. * The photos of what not to do should be clearly labeled with a red cross bar or WRONG overlay on the photo. If you flip causally through the book and look at the photos some very wrong stuff is there and you have to read the text to know that it is not recommended. * The religious debate on anchor systems rages on. Should you set up a Joshua Tree System with Tether or a Backside System? I realize the AMGA doesn't want to pick sides and will say either is acceptable, but the book doesn't even try to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of various anchor systems.
