Most of t...

Re: how to root a tiny euphorbia

Update, it has been slowly shriveling as shown in the following pics. Wondering if I should stay the course or add water, maybe put a ziplock upside down over the top to add some humidity? Hoping for the best.

how to root a tiny euphorbia

I was repotting an agave I purchased and I found this guy in the soil. Maybe a euphorbia obesa or symetrica, but please tell me if I'm mistaken.
