@@upatgrassybottom9859We had one in a pot a few years back then suddenly a few started growing in the garden. Today we have a huge bundle of these beautiful plants but they are a very invasive species and while sitting in the garden you sometimes get bombarded by seeds from this plant so that's how they do it. Looking for info to stop the invasion I came across your video, but you seem to help them even further 😅 as far as I gathered from the Internet you should cut them back right after blooming so the next stage of shooting seeds everywhere is stopped. Have you tried that? And where to cut? I do have a bundle of seeds gathered just in case I'm killing it so I'm willing to gamble a bit but maybe you dealt with it?
Tfs! Got two Euphorbia Tobias yesterday from B&Q, while reporting today instinctively I put on gloves only to see the white sap turn almost neon blue?! 😅😅😅 phew
Took some 3 inch cuttings in coco coir from a plant growing from under my neighbours fence. Hopefully they take and I can plant them out this spring.
This was really helpful, thankyou! I have lots of euphorbia growing 'wild' in my garden so I've managed to take some great cuttings for friends ❤
I recently done another euphorbia video th-cam.com/video/0IcCqnGOWFY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Vn3BRuzQXtkpD0WE
Thanks for the video! Solid advice.
You're welcome, I took more last week

Yes, it can appear like that. Always wear gloves , I only wear them when cutting back the spent flowers, but it's good practice to wear them always.
mine seed everywhere. I am surprised you do cuttings. Thanks for the video though
You have to do vegetative cuttings to keep named varieties true,
