Flowering Cactus Care/Euphorbial Milli /Best Goodluck Feng Shui Plant

Flowering Cactus Euphorbia Milli Goodluck Plant of Thailand
 This is a very beautiful and attractive plant having green foliage and peach coloured flowers all year long. Known as the Auspicious plant of goodluck in Thailand you will see every home adorning with this special cactus plants at entryways. The belief prevails that this cactus plant attracts abundance and goodluck and also provides protection to the home and its inmates from evil eye, spirits and negative energies. The green leaves are elongated and cover the spikes/thorns. 
buy Reiki evil eye paintings.  It has its own protective covering of bright green leaves which conceals the thorns well. This is a good choice for new gardeners as this does not require much care. Absolutely carefree, only watering in few days and it flowers naturally during seasons and most times we see the flowers all year round. 
Last month during heavy rains it had become very slushy and mushy and the stem started to rot. Well it does not tolerate heavy downpour and it is advisable to keep it under part shade during rainy season. This plant also is a favourite home for butterflies to lay eggs due to the extensive green foliage. My plant had nearly more than fifty eggs and though I felt very bad in cleaning them but I had to save my plant. I have noticed the caterpillars have a voracious appetite and if neglected the plant may succumb to continuous feeding by them. They eat up all the leaves and thus you may have stubs of cactus remaining. Once we also had an influence of terrific evil eye and the cactus nearly almost killed itself protecting us! even cactus dies with negative touch-read my experience.

Water requirements are not much and can be watered on alternate days or when the upper layer of the mud seems dry. Compost may be added after few months to replenish the soil from lost nutrition due to watering.
Attractive but only for those that are comfortable with thorny plants. In Feng Shui it is advisable to avoid plants having thorns but I personally feel as in life there is happiness and sadness one cannot oversee the sad moments as they are the real spice in our lives and they make the happy moments more happier! my husband has selected this plant and even though at first I was reluctant to take care of it , somehow it has made a place in my heart with its attractive flowers and bright green leaves.
