Grafting of Euphorbia 

Been in this hobby more than 30 years, and I've got to say: This is an EXCELLENT video! Both the instruction and the filmwork are top-notch. (The only thing I would add is on the topic of when to remove the rubber bands. Some people get a little nervous about removing them "too soon", or "too late". Well, better to leave them on longer than is absolutely necessary. But once you can see new growth in the grafted plant, definitely remove the bands before they impinge.) Thanks for this!

sangat menarik, saya ingin belajar lebih lanjut tentang euphorbia, semoga channel ini bermanfaat bagi viewernya

Very clear and useful demonstration, Very...elegant

Wonderful video and great collection of euphorbias

Very inyerest! I have grafted Ephorbia lactea cristata. Very internest plant!

Браво

great video on grafting of euphorbia. I always wanted to try grafting euphoria but I didn't know how to get pass milky juice (latex) of euphorbia . Thank you for posting this video

Thanks, I always want to learn how to graft the euphorbia. This is very useful for me.

None of the plants shown look anything like the Euphorbia we know here in the U.S. We also call it Crown of Thorns. Amazing hedges of them in the warm parts of the country!

execelente muy buena demostracion.

@pigknuckles211 The light is just sunlight, no atifical lighting. In winter there is artifical heating because it can cool down to minus 15 degrees Celsius outside.

..that I find so appealing in the subject matter. Are your plants subject to forced greenhouse conditons or could this kind of growth be acheived "passively"? just a question of curiosity.

Thank you for this wonderful and very informative video. Have you successfully grafted Euphorbia arbuscula? If so, what stock would you recommend for it?

@ohmitered408 Thanks. I am glad you like it. I hope to finish the english translation, which will give you some more detailed information.

yes the stem that was made to I suppose to insert into the other cacti is there, thats what it looks like to me and it has roots. I wonder without having to use such a large cactus could I somehow make it smaller and add it to a smaller stock as I believe its called. its so pretty the shape is I meant.

Hi Maggie, it is diificult for me to give you a good advice without having a picture of the plants and situation we are talking about. Maybe it is best to put your question with some photo's on a forum

@pigknuckles211 The first plant that is shown is kept on it's own roots. The second one that is shown is a grafted one. These plants are grown in a greenhouse. I am not the owner of the plants but the person who is cultivating them will not force his plants in any way with fertilizer or so. If that is what you were questioning?

Several places. Depends where you live. For Europe the ELK every year in Belgium is a good place to be. The more common ones can be bought in a Garden center.

Cactus plants are from a different family of plants and will not grow on Euphorbia stock. But there are plenty of good stocks form the cactus family it self. Only Euphorbia related plants such as Monadenium will probably grow on Euphorbia stocks.

What is that song called that you have playing throughout the video? I've been trying to find it for years!

@lowkeyisme23cliff Grafting is used in cases when you want faster grow or when the plant is difficult to keep healthy on its own roots. Grafted plants are easier to propagate by cuttings, flower often more easily and can be kept by less experienced people. For some of the rare species it is the only way to propagate fast (and thereby help to protect the remaining population in nature).

Splendid sir

Mr. Selfridge brought me here. Props to the music choice.

really impressed by the video,nice collection. Can any kind of cactus can be grafted on Euphorbia? I have Euphorbia neriifolia can i graft any kind of cactus on it?

Good job

Hi Maggie you are probably not talken about an Euphorbia. Grafting a large barrel is not such a good idea, beacuse you will need an enormous grafting stem. If you are on the North hemisphere part of the world, probably the best thing to do is keep a dry till spring and not in the direct sun. Do you know what the name of the barrel cactus is?

What is the name of second rs?

Thanks for the informative video. Do all the scions have to be a Euphorbia or any cacti species would work as a scion on say Euphorbia Ingens as stock plant ?

Is this Dutch or Flemish ? I'm Afrikaans and seem to understand it much easier than I would normally understand Dutch. Groot waardering vir die video, was gaaf.

this would take a barrel cactus to hold it up a large outside one.I have looked it over after I calmed down and it has about a 2-3 inch pointed stem on bottom and on one side its all dry and it looks like bronze roots.its late here so I have just put it back in the same pot it was growing in.I saw one of these about 6 months back just growing out of a pot so I thought what the heck Its this or doomed I have never grafted one and starting with this large of one I would probably kil both cactus.

my top just broke off the main stem what ca I do it looks OK.

Sorry, it took a little whiel to get the right answer. I checked on the expert. There is no need to graft this Euphorbia species. Cuttings are easy to reroot. Every branch will give a good looking complete plant again. If you really want to graft, the shown rootstocks will do and problably the best way is to use a split graft

Very useful videos! Thanks a lot!

Ótimo...

Do you mean the garft? If it is still ok you can re-graft

Can follow if subtitles shown in English ....thanks anyway fr the beautiful video.

Very nice. I'll have to come and meet you so we can share all your growing secrets with me!

You send seeds this euphorbia canariensis? I from Brazil 🇧🇷

English subtitles? I'm very disappointed! There are no subtitles. I have picked up a few words (cut, knife, alcohol, quickly, not, yes) only because I know a little German. Is there some way to turn on subtitles? I can't find an icon for it.

is it possible to graft euphorbia stellata to euphorbia milli ?

I have added english subtitles on the 8th of july 2011.

Wondering what you spray the wound with

nice plants cactus euphorbia

Cheers mate thanks for sharing!

You send seeds for Brazil?

Good job and nice tutorial! Could someone tell me the species of the second scion they graft? (The one grafted to the euphorbia ingens) Thanks!

Is that water he used for spraying and removing the milky sap?

It is clean water

does euphorbia lactea have toxic latex inside? I recently purchased one.

English please!!!

@DRCEVNL I wish it goes that easy when I try it :) Somehow I doubt that :) But this is very helpful video indeed, thank you. And I take my hat down to such skill.

Има stara legenda o jednom cvetu vrsta je kaktusa Majka Bogorodica putovala kroz pustinju nije bilo vode sunce upeklo jedan lep cvet se otvori nakupio kisnice gospa uzela ružu napila se .podarila je blagoslov svoj ruzi .ima latinski naziv može mi neko pomoći da nadjem svoj cvet sto tražim dugo vreme.Adriana Gajer

you're welcome

nice

How do i prune this plant?

@pigknuckles211 Hi. It is Euphorbia unispina

i am afraid there is little room left :)

plant transplantation =)

Seems careless to let Euphorbia latex touch your skin at all and a bad example to set. Otherwise interesting though.

Poor miserable the animal trapped there with all those toxic plants.

Boooo that joke stinks... Wait where am I?
