Been in this hobby more than 30 years, and I've got to say: This is an EXCELLENT video! Both the instruction and the filmwork are top-notch. (The only thing I would add is on the topic of when to remove the rubber bands. Some people get a little nervous about removing them "too soon", or "too late". Well, better to leave them on longer than is absolutely necessary. But once you can see new growth in the grafted plant, definitely remove the bands before they impinge.) Thanks for this!
great video on grafting of euphorbia. I always wanted to try grafting euphoria but I didn't know how to get pass milky juice (latex) of euphorbia . Thank you for posting this video
None of the plants shown look anything like the Euphorbia we know here in the U.S. We also call it Crown of Thorns. Amazing hedges of them in the warm parts of the country!
..that I find so appealing in the subject matter. Are your plants subject to forced greenhouse conditons or could this kind of growth be acheived "passively"? just a question of curiosity.
Thank you for this wonderful and very informative video. Have you successfully grafted Euphorbia arbuscula? If so, what stock would you recommend for it?
really impressed by the video,nice collection. Can any kind of cactus can be grafted on Euphorbia? I have Euphorbia neriifolia can i graft any kind of cactus on it?
yes the stem that was made to I suppose to insert into the other cacti is there, thats what it looks like to me and it has roots. I wonder without having to use such a large cactus could I somehow make it smaller and add it to a smaller stock as I believe its called. its so pretty the shape is I meant.
Cactus plants are from a different family of plants and will not grow on Euphorbia stock. But there are plenty of good stocks form the cactus family it self. Only Euphorbia related plants such as Monadenium will probably grow on Euphorbia stocks.
@pigknuckles211 The first plant that is shown is kept on it's own roots. The second one that is shown is a grafted one. These plants are grown in a greenhouse. I am not the owner of the plants but the person who is cultivating them will not force his plants in any way with fertilizer or so. If that is what you were questioning?
@pigknuckles211 The light is just sunlight, no atifical lighting. In winter there is artifical heating because it can cool down to minus 15 degrees Celsius outside.
Sorry, it took a little whiel to get the right answer. I checked on the expert. There is no need to graft this Euphorbia species. Cuttings are easy to reroot. Every branch will give a good looking complete plant again. If you really want to graft, the shown rootstocks will do and problably the best way is to use a split graft
Several places. Depends where you live. For Europe the ELK every year in Belgium is a good place to be. The more common ones can be bought in a Garden center.
Hi Maggie, it is diificult for me to give you a good advice without having a picture of the plants and situation we are talking about. Maybe it is best to put your question with some photo's on a forum
Thanks for the informative video. Do all the scions have to be a Euphorbia or any cacti species would work as a scion on say Euphorbia Ingens as stock plant ?
@lowkeyisme23cliff Grafting is used in cases when you want faster grow or when the plant is difficult to keep healthy on its own roots. Grafted plants are easier to propagate by cuttings, flower often more easily and can be kept by less experienced people. For some of the rare species it is the only way to propagate fast (and thereby help to protect the remaining population in nature).
Hi Maggie you are probably not talken about an Euphorbia. Grafting a large barrel is not such a good idea, beacuse you will need an enormous grafting stem. If you are on the North hemisphere part of the world, probably the best thing to do is keep a dry till spring and not in the direct sun. Do you know what the name of the barrel cactus is?
this would take a barrel cactus to hold it up a large outside one.I have looked it over after I calmed down and it has about a 2-3 inch pointed stem on bottom and on one side its all dry and it looks like bronze roots.its late here so I have just put it back in the same pot it was growing in.I saw one of these about 6 months back just growing out of a pot so I thought what the heck Its this or doomed I have never grafted one and starting with this large of one I would probably kil both cactus.
Beste meneer, ik ben heel gelukkig deze video te zien, dit is mijn hobby en droom. Ik ben Marokkaans, ik heb naar U een mail gestuurd. Mijn passies sijn planten, kunst en dieren... Ik wil graag Kontakt met U door telefoon hebben. Hartelijk groet.
Is this Dutch or Flemish ? I'm Afrikaans and seem to understand it much easier than I would normally understand Dutch. Groot waardering vir die video, was gaaf.
Hi, i think it would not be a good grafting stock for this specie. The beauty of E. stellate is partly in the massive root. They are not difficult to grow at all. Just use a larger container and you will see they will grow pretty fast
English subtitles? I'm very disappointed! There are no subtitles. I have picked up a few words (cut, knife, alcohol, quickly, not, yes) only because I know a little German. Is there some way to turn on subtitles? I can't find an icon for it.
Hi Emilyann. At the bottom right you will see 5 icons. Select a low resolution (3th button) if you have a slow connection. The second button should give you the option of turning on the subtitles.
Thank you! The video looked so informative and I was terribly disappointed not to be able to understand it. I'll try watching it this weekend and will let you know if I have trouble. (Apparently, I did mean Dutch. Sorry.)

+Sam Singh Hi Sam. I assume it is a big plant. I would be very careful. I would wear saftey glasses and gloves. Keep enough water nearby to flush away the poison white juice. If it is very big you would need tools like a saw. Like when pruning trees watch parts that suddenly break down, you may want to take precautions for that as well. The juice is very poison in some of these species and can work though the skin.
@DRCEVNL I wish it goes that easy when I try it :) Somehow I doubt that :) But this is very helpful video indeed, thank you. And I take my hat down to such skill.

do you have to cross rings like with grafting cacti???
Do u know what is the one is it, the green with leaves? Is it e. Trigonia?
Very clear and useful demonstration,
Very...elegant
sangat menarik, saya ingin belajar lebih lanjut tentang euphorbia, semoga channel ini bermanfaat bagi viewernya
Wonderful video and great collection of euphorbias
Thanks, I always want to learn how to graft the euphorbia. This is very useful for me.
great video on grafting of euphorbia. I always wanted to try grafting euphoria but I didn't know how to get pass milky juice (latex) of euphorbia . Thank you for posting this video
Very inyerest! I have grafted Ephorbia lactea cristata. Very internest plant!

Mr. Selfridge brought me here. Props to the music choice.
execelente muy buena demostracion.
Can follow if subtitles shown in English ....thanks anyway fr the beautiful video.
Hi, subtitles are available in both dutch and english. You can select English in the settings
Thanks for the informative video. Do all the scions have to be a Euphorbia or any cacti species would work as a scion on say Euphorbia Ingens as stock plant ?
In general, when grafting, stock and scion have to be close family

What is that song called that you have playing throughout the video? I've been trying to find it for years!
Браво
Very nice. I'll have to come and meet you so we can share all your growing secrets with me!
You send seeds this euphorbia canariensis? I from Brazil 🇧🇷
Hi Bruno, sorry, no we do not have seeds

Splendid sir
What is the name of second rs?
Wondering what you spray the wound with
Clean water
CONGRATULATIONS!!! NICE JOB.

Good job
my top just broke off the main stem what ca I do it looks OK.
Is this Dutch or Flemish ? I'm Afrikaans and seem to understand it much easier than I would normally understand Dutch. Groot waardering vir die video, was gaaf.
It is Dutch, but we do have different dialects in the Netherlands. So maybe it is the accent that helps
is it possible to graft euphorbia stellata to euphorbia milli ?
Hi, i think it would not be a good grafting stock for this specie. The beauty of E. stellate is partly in the massive root. They are not difficult to grow at all. Just use a larger container and you will see they will grow pretty fast
Thanks for your usefull response. Good advice!
Do you mean the garft? If it is still ok you can re-graft
I have added english subtitles on the 8th of july 2011.
does euphorbia lactea have toxic latex inside? I recently purchased one.
Yes, it does. The species name 'lactea' is latin for 'milky'
nice plants cactus euphorbia
You send seeds for Brazil?
Sorry, i do not have Euphorbia seeds (this is the collection of someone else)
Is that water he used for spraying and removing the milky sap?
Yes, right
Thanks for sharing!
English subtitles? I'm very disappointed! There are no subtitles. I have picked up a few words (cut, knife, alcohol, quickly, not, yes) only because I know a little German. Is there some way to turn on subtitles? I can't find an icon for it.

You Do Mean Dutch?
Thank you! The video looked so informative and I was terribly disappointed not to be able to understand it. I'll try watching it this weekend and will let you know if I have trouble. (Apparently, I did mean Dutch. Sorry.)
Good job and nice tutorial! Could someone tell me the species of the second scion they graft? (The one grafted to the euphorbia ingens) Thanks!
Good
This is very helpful. Thanks
@pigknuckles211 Hi. It is Euphorbia unispina

Where can I buy these cacti
English please!!!
there is a little box to click. the CC box next to the little gear. there are your subtitles.
i am afraid there is little room left :)
It is clean water
How do i prune this plant?
+Sam Singh Hi Sam. I assume it is a big plant. I would be very careful. I would wear saftey glasses and gloves. Keep enough water nearby to flush away the poison white juice. If it is very big you would need tools like a saw. Like when pruning trees watch parts that suddenly break down, you may want to take precautions for that as well. The juice is very poison in some of these species and can work though the skin.
can i move in?
Cheers mate thanks for sharing!
you're welcome

nice
Ótimo...
Seems careless to let Euphorbia latex touch your skin at all and a bad example to set. Otherwise interesting though.
Yes, you are right. There is a explicit warning at 0:25!
Poor miserable the animal trapped there with all those toxic plants.
Bizarre comment and person.. lol
plant transplantation =)
Boooo that joke stinks...
Wait where am I?
