Product Details

Proudly grown by Pure Beauty Farms and despite its somewhat off-putting name, the Crown of Thorns plant is a beautiful succulent variety that can bloom year-round, even indoors. Although crown of thorns can grow into a woody shrub, it is also an ideal houseplant for most homes. It likes the same room temperature that people enjoy and it can handle the lack of humidity prevalent in most homes during the Winter.
  • Thick, bright green leaves grow along the new stem growth
  • Flowers are small, surrounded by showy bracts in red, pink and yellow
  • Crown of thorns is only perennial in USDA Hardiness Zones 9 to 11, in colder climates, it is often grown as a houseplant
  • As with most flowering plants, the better the sun exposure, the more blooms you will get, however crown of thorns will reliably bloom as long as it gets at least 3-hours to 4-hours of bright, direct sunlight per day
  • Caution: besides the sharp black thorns on its main branches and stems, the sticky, latex sap from broken leaves and stems can be a skin and eye irritant, if ingested all parts of the plant are toxic to people and pets

Q:How tall do they grow

Answer This Question

A:  I don’t know how fast growing they are but I have seen some in large pots at Long Vue Gardens in New Orleans that were at least 3 or more feet high with several flowering stalks. I thought this flowering cactus to be most impressive. They had several of them in pots alternating between red and yellow. That is what influenced me to purchase these. They came well packaged and are very healthy plants with red flowers and look just like the photo shown. I have repotted mine and they are in a cactus garden along the side of my house.

        One received root rotted
        These plants are packaged well but sadly one of the crowns died in two days. I suspect root rot. Have contacted the company waiting to see what if anything will be done.

              Plants were in excellent shape. Only complaint would be watching the delivery guy treat a fragile package like its a regular package causing one plant to tip over

              Flowers were delivered a little flattened probably due to delivery handlings but still beautiful and fresh. Came with lots of flowers. Good medium size plants. Would order from again.
