Indoor Houseplant

We dabble in house plants from time to time. This is one we took to the Northeast Plant Show in Syracuse on August 2. It was a big hit. 

"Devil's Backbone" commonly refers to the succulent species Euphorbia tithymaloides, previously classified as Pedilanthus tithymaloides. It is a member of the Euphorbiaceae family, also known as the spurge family.

Appearance: It's a low-maintenance succulent known for its unique zigzagging stems that resemble a spine or backbone, giving it the characteristic name.

Other Names: It's also called Zigzag Plant, Redbird Cactus, Jacob's Ladder, Slipper Flower, Japanese Poinsettia, and more.

Leaves: It features small, lance-shaped leaves that can be green, variegated with white edges, and sometimes take on a reddish or pink tint in bright light or cool weather.

Flowers: While the plant does have true flowers, it also has red leaf bracts that are sometimes called "slipper flowers" due to their shoe shape. It generally flowers in mid-spring, although flowering indoors is less common.

Toxicity: All parts of the Devil's Backbone plant, including the roots, stems, and leaves, are toxic to pets (like dogs and cats) and humans if ingested. The milky sap can also cause skin irritation upon contact.

Growth: It can be grown indoors or outdoors in warm climates (USDA Hardiness Zones 9-11). Outdoors, it can grow up to 8 feet tall, while indoor plants typically reach 4 or 5 feet.

Care: It prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sun (avoiding intense midday rays) and thrives in well-draining, sandy soil or a cactus/succulent mix. It's relatively drought-tolerant, so it's important to allow the soil to dry out between waterings to avoid root rot.

Benefits: Besides its ornamental value, it's known for being a low-maintenance plant and is believed to have air-purifying properties, filtering out toxins like formaldehyde and benzene.

Vision came to life!!

I am pleased with my purchase, I wanted a spot light but I like the strip. The picture was taken in the early evening, it gives a great ambiance. Lights start to dim as the batteries die, easy installation. I used tan tape to cover the power cord, the shelves are above eye level so you can’t see it.

Amazing concept

They are everything I wanted for the aesthetic I was going for. They are a fairly simple install and they come with pretty good instructions. However, I don't know if it was my rush to get them up or if it was a design flaw but they are not very sturdy in the wall. I had seen a few reviews that said that they were a bit loose and I wasn't expecting heavy objects on it but I did end up needing to put support bars underneath them just because they kept sinking downward. Had I known that would have been the case I would have installed them differently and avoided putting holes in my wall at all but they're up now and it is what it is.

Can I say these are the perfect shelves for home decor? Yes I can. I love these shelves. They gave my walls some well needed decor upgrade. Only downside it that the cords are not removeable.
