Euphorbia Tirucalli 'Firesticks': The Fiery Pencil Cactus Guide

 

The Euphorbia Tirucalli 'Firesticks', also widely known as 'Sticks on Fire' or the Firestick Plant, is a breathtaking succulent that adds a dramatic, architectural element to any landscape or indoor space. While often called a "pencil cactus," it's not a true cactus but a member of the diverse Euphorbiaceae family. Originating from Africa and India, this plant is renowned for its slender, pencil-like stems that can shift from a vibrant green and gold to brilliant shades of fiery red, orange, and yellow, especially when "stressed" by cool temperatures or direct sunlight.

 


 

Growing Tips

 

  • Light: For the most intense coloration, provide your 'Firesticks' with as much direct sunlight as possible. Aim for at least 6-8 hours of full sun per day. If grown indoors, a south-facing window is an ideal location. Gradual acclimation is essential when moving the plant from a lower light environment to a sunnier one to prevent sunburn.

     

  • Temperature: This plant thrives in warm, dry conditions and is not cold-hardy. It is best suited for USDA Hardiness Zones 9-11. It can handle temperatures from 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C) but must be protected from frost. If you live in a climate with cold winters, grow it in a container that can be moved indoors when temperatures drop below 50°F (10°C).

     

  • Watering: Like other succulents, 'Firesticks' is highly susceptible to root rot from overwatering. The "soak and dry" method is crucial. Water thoroughly, allowing all excess water to drain from the pot, and then let the soil dry out completely before watering again. During the active growing season (spring and summer), this may be every week or two, depending on the heat. In the dormant winter months, reduce watering significantly, perhaps to once a month or even less. When in doubt, it's always better to underwater than to overwater.

     

  • Soil Preparation: Excellent drainage is non-negotiable for this plant's health. Use a well-draining cactus or succulent potting mix. You can enhance the drainage by adding perlite, pumice, or coarse sand to a standard potting mix. A pot with a drainage hole is also essential to prevent water from pooling at the bottom.

     

  • Propagation: Propagating 'Firesticks' from stem cuttings is a straightforward process.

     

    • Safety First: Before you begin, wear gloves and eye protection. The milky white sap of this plant is a toxic latex that can cause severe skin irritation, rashes, and can be very dangerous if it gets into the eyes.

       

    • Take Cuttings: Use a clean, sharp knife or shears to cut a healthy stem section.

       

    • Callous: After making the cut, the stem will ooze sap. You can dab the sap with a damp cloth or rinse it with water. Allow the cutting to sit in a dry, shaded area for several days to a week until the cut end forms a hard, dry callous. This step is vital to prevent rot.

       

    • Planting: Once calloused, plant the cutting in a pot with well-draining succulent soil.

       

    • Rooting: Place the pot in a warm spot with bright, indirect light. Water very sparingly until new roots have formed, which can take several weeks. Once rooted, you can move it to a sunnier location and resume a regular watering schedule.

It’s ok.
Color: Beige, Size: Upgraded Base-4 Panel
It works, but not a great product. The cloth is super thin, so do not expect to use it to block noise. Wants to bent and tilt with little effort to make it so. Will not stand straight. It is a good color though.

Too Short & Skewed Foot. Easy Build & Good Material.
Color: Black, Size: Upgraded Base-1 Panel, Color: Black, Size: Upgraded Base-1 Panel
The 3 partitions I purchased were of good material but were shorter than described and the "feet" on one end of all 3 partitions was skewed a few degrees so I cannot butt them together side by side. PHOTO #1: you see me who is 63.5 inches in my shoes standing next to the 72 inch described partition minus the wheels so it is fair to say it should be 70 inches. But even so, 70 inches minus 63.5 equals 6.5 inches that should be above my head and should not include the tip of the pole and a 6 inch gap below. PHOTO #2: shows the gap when a 90 degree good end is butted against the skewed end. Good material and easy construction but just make it taller and fix the jig that skews the bottom bracket weld.

Great for “pop up home office”
Color: Grey, Size: Upgraded Base-4 Panel
If you need a space for a video conference in a hurry or to make a private corner for a kiddo to nap in this is a perfect divider that blocks light and separates spaces. It was easy to put together and collapses down to a flat panel for easy storage out of the way.

It’s a hard no from me
Color: Black, Size: Upgraded Base-1 Panel
I ordered two of these black, single screen panels several months ago. I ordered an additional four I needed a few days ago so I would have the total of 6 that I ended up needing. I did so by clicking on my past order (2 screens) item page and simply placed my recent order for 4 more. Two of the six screens have bolts that don’t fully screw down, such that one of each panel’s four points where the screen attaches to the two legs isn’t fully screwed down and flush. As a result, the screen doesn’t stay entirely vertical -It’s warped askew. Also, 3 of the six screens are different heights than the other 3. It’s clear to me that this company has ZERO QUALITY CONTROL, as there’s not anything that is even adjustable on these screens that leaves room for user error. Additionally, there are four black rubber circles that come in the “parts/screws” bag that don’t have corresponding installation instructions in the instruction manual. Just spend a little more and go with a better quality product somewhere else.
