Propagate in the spring and early summer using 3- 4 stem tip cuttings. Euphorbia milii will only be susceptible to diseases as a result of too much water either in the substrate or on the foliage. Do not let your plant sit in water or wet soil for prolonged periods of time or the roots will rot.
Most propagation is by rhizome division.
Sprinkle water around the base of the cutting whenever the soil feels completely dry in the top inch but take care not to saturate the soil. Water when the soil feels dry about 1 inch below the surface. Place the new stalks in their own pots and cover the roots with soil. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 7 and above.
