SOMONA
Euphorbia X lomi Hybrids
A display of charming multi-layered flowers on a plant that grows without
the need for a green thumb. Placed in full sun and warm air, Somonas will
continuously produce brightly coloured flowers with every inch of growth.
Somonas thrive in places where other flowering potted plants will suffer
from too much heat and sun. They are ideal for interior plantscaping and
for hydroponic growing systems.
They look just a little like Crown of Thorns,
but SOMONAS offer big advantages over Euphorbia milii
-
Somonas are daylight neutral. With every new leaf appears a flower. Each
flower grows several more "layers" of new flowers. With minimal care and
good location the plants can display their beauty continuously for
many years.
-
Somonas keep their leaves for a very long time. Within some years the plants
can develop into impressive specimen, forming sturdy bushes more than two
feet tall with leaves still decorating almost down to the pot.
-
Established plants are very hardy. Insects seem to dislike Somona, and
diseases are rare and are usually associated with cold or dark conditions.
-
The thorns of Somonas are mostly very soft and do not sting. No special
handling is necessary for mature plants.
