Care

Give it very bright light, including some direct sun after gradual acclimation. Let the potting mix dry between waterings and use a fast-draining mix. Protect from frost.

Wear gloves when handling: the stems have sharp thorns, and the milky sap can irritate skin and is harmful if ingested. Keep away from children and pets.
