HOUSE PLANT: Madagascar jewel (Euphorbia leuconeura)
Selling a handful of these stunning Madagascar jewels because my original jewel grew so big and started spitting out so many seeds and even new ones germinated from under my main jewel. Instead of throwing them away I thought selling them to someone who is looking for gorgeous houseplants is the way! Here is some information about the Euphorbia leuconeura you should know: -The Madagascar Jewel is grown as a houseplant for its attractive foliage. It grows best in partial shade but tolerates full shade and is relatively easy to care for providing it is not exposed to cold drafts. -The Madagascar jewel is a species of plant in the Euphorbiaceae family. It is endemic to Madagascar. Its natural habitat is forest undergrowth in rocky areas. It can grow to a height of 1.8 m (6 ft), as a branching small tree, and propagates by shooting its seeds several feet into the air.

(Although I personally have handled it a lot of times and didn't get any irritation.) Read More
