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.

In Love With These Interconnected Series
Format: Kindle
I am in love with these interconnected series!!!! I love getting sneak peeks at the girls we haven’t met yet and seeing the girls we know and love interact with each other. I also really enjoy the concept of how all of the sectors are set up and the way that the academy is run. Alexandra’s situation is especially unique as she has lived her whole life thinking that she is human while wishing that she wasn’t. She has created her own monsters to protect her from the monsters in her real life, but all of the sudden her monsters are real!!! I love how different this is from other stories that I have read, not a lot of characters will living beings with their own memories and thoughts into existence. I am also super excited to see how the ending translates into the next book and if there will be any ties to Greek mythology included.

Unexpectedly emotional and packed with action!
Format: Kindle
Why do I suddenly want nothing more than a tiny wyvern to snuggle with?! It’s adorable and I absolutely love all of those moments! Wings of Stars was everything I’ve come expect from this powerful author duo. The fact that it’s written by two different people is completely transparent to the reader and they’ve brought us another world and characters that we’re all emotionally connected to and fully invested in! The injustice that we see from Alfemir in the many forms in which it comes is infuriating and makes me desperate for the conclusion of the story so they can all get what’s coming to them! I love all the guys right now, with one exception, and if you’re read it, you know exactly who I’m talking about. Bastian is hilarious - he was the comedic relief through an otherwise quite serious story. My heart bleeds for him and I can’t wait to see how he progresses through the series. Parts of Wings of Stars were unexpectedly emotional and of course I was left with my jaw on the floor at that cliffhanger! Next, please!

Niz !!!
Format: Kindle
First, let me say that I love both of these authors. I have been hooked by both ever since I discovered their writings, and I follow their social media groups closely. This book did not disappoint. Sure, there are several questions that I have, a couple of times I went huh (which I won't get into because I do not want to offer any spoilers) and I hated the cliff hanger lol, but I cannot lie and say I didn't love the book, because I did. The twist on angels was new and fresh, even though that is part of my questions. The beginning and ending were the better parts, the middle was needed but sorta bogged a little. Kieran was confusing but relatable. Niz is BY FAR the best character of the book, love NIZ. For me, Bastian is a close second, always loved the crazy ones. The other men were good, but Steele gets on my nerves and as of right now, IMO, he doesn't belong, but we will see how that goes. I have lots of questions, but this was an excellent start to a new series and I cannot wait for the next book. Highly recommend

fallen destiny? more like destined to fall in love
Format: Kindle
Kieran is an angel, but she doesn't have an affinity. Nothing angers her father more. If she doesn't find an affinity soon she will be cast to earth & have her wings removed. But she has the choice to become a fallen angel, wings turn black, & live her life on edge. Towards the end of the book things start to make sense. Gabe’s nickname for Kieran, Steele’a hatred, Bastian’s belief that Kieran is powerful. This book ended literally during a war? As one of her friends was injured, and admitted a bit secret? Talk about cliff hanger. The next book comes out August 5th.

Well holy moly!
Format: Kindle
Holy moly that story definitely had me hooked! Kieran was definitely a character that I immediately adored. She has obviously had to deal with a butt load of too high expectations from her father (who is 🤬).. She has been helpless when it came to finding out her affinity with so many years of no answers & perceived failure. When Ronan, gives her a small inkling of hope that she be a Beast Tamer, she jumps into it. But again she doesn’t seem to fit. But when she runs into Gabe again, she ends up helping him & rethinking her life in Alfemir. And when the opportunity comes she decides leaving is the best option. But when Ronan demands he comes with her & then the random appearance of Bastian, she is feeling very overwhelmed. After she chooses to fall with them, they land on earth exactly where Gabe is located only to run into Steele who is a person that I was finding hard to like. After training, she eventually finds out she does have an affinity & it’s one that no longer exist & is incredibly powerful but also has a prophecy attached to it. I feel incredibly bad for her on she learns about the prophecy & Steele’s connection with it too. But that ending, with the battle scene & Niz….yeah definitely was not expecting that but hello I am all here for it too! Absolutely amazing start of a series & I for sure will be waiting for the next one to come out. Amazing job!
