Plant Description

The Firesticks Euphorbia (Euphorbia Tirucalli) is a succulent shrub known for its unique and eye-catching appearance. It features upright, slender, cylindrical stems that resemble pencils or sticks. Under ideal conditions, the stems can grow as tall as 6 to 8 feet or even higher. While the stems are typically green, they take on a vibrant red or coral hue in direct sunlight, creating the "sticks on fire" effect. The stems are covered with small, deciduous green leaves that fall off as the plant matures.

Growing Conditions

  • Sunlight: Firesticks need full sunlight to develop their bright color.
  • Soil: Plant in well-draining soil, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.
  • USDA Zones: Best suited for USDA hardiness zones 10 and 11, as this plant cannot tolerate frost or freezing temperatures.
  • Handling Precaution: The white sap produced by the plant when cut or damaged can irritate the skin and is toxic if ingested. Handle with caution.

Size and Shaping

Maintaining the size and shape of Firesticks Euphorbia is simple:

  • Pruning: Prune with care, especially when managing the plant's size. Wear protective gear, as the plant's sap is toxic and can irritate the skin.
  • Shaping: Proper pruning helps maintain its form and encourages healthy growth, keeping it an attractive feature in your garden.

Occasional Blooms

On rare occasions, Firesticks may produce small, inconspicuous yellow or greenish blooms at the stem tips. Though these flowers are not the primary decorative feature of the plant, they can add an interesting touch.

Great Federal Courts supplement
Format: Paperback
This E&E book really helped with Fed. Courts! Incorporate the public v. private law models/SOP and federalist v. nationalist paradigms which my professor used in the course. This version doesn't have some of the newer cases (TransUnion v. Ramirez). The standing section could have more info but standing is one of the easiest doctrines in fed courts. The Habeas Corpus, particularly the Teague Doctrine and AEDPA, section is excellent. The only big thing this book does not include are universal injunctions and the scope of remedies (outside of standing, anti-injunction act, and section 1983).

Perfect for the little ones Christmas
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I ordered this book for a recent baby shower. I always try to get this story as I received one for my son when he was little and we still have it. It makes lasting memories for Christmas to watch them as they listen to you read it and then when you get to listen to them read it as they get older. It’s a timeless tradition. The book itself is brand new, the spine was in perfect shape and the book was never opened. It was super stiff and I didn’t want to open it so I didn’t get any pictures of the pages. But I did peak inside without cracking the spine and saw that the pics looked nice. For the price you can’t beat it.

The Night Before Christmas (Little Golden Book)
Format: Hardcover
I recently read "The Night Before Christmas" Little Golden Book and it brought back so many memories of my childhood. This classic holiday story has been a staple in many households, including mine, for years. One thing I really liked about this book is the beautiful illustrations. They were vibrant and full of detail, bringing the story to life. The images perfectly captured the magic and excitement of Christmas Eve. It made me feel like I was right there with Santa and his reindeer, flying through the night sky. I also enjoyed the rhyming text in this book. It flowed smoothly and added a playful rhythm to the story. It was fun to read aloud, especially when sharing it with younger children. The words painted a vivid picture of all the wonderful things happening on that special night. However, one thing I disliked about this book was that it felt a bit short. I wished there was more to the story or maybe an additional scene at the end. But considering it's a Little Golden Book meant for younger readers, I understand why it was kept concise. I have used this book as a bedtime story for my little cousins during the holiday season. They absolutely loved it! The magical theme and festive illustrations captivated their imaginations.
