To keep your African Milk Tree looking its best, gently wipe its tall stems with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and allow it to breathe and absorb light more efficiently. Rotate the plant every few weeks so it grows evenly and doesn’t lean toward the light source. If any stems become too tall or unruly, you can carefully prune them back - always wearing gloves, as the plant’s sap can be irritating. Trimmings will not regrow from the cut point, but new branches may form lower on the stem. Over time, your African Milk Tree may outgrow its pot, and when that happens, you can repot it using easyplant’s repotting kit, which provides a larger pot with fresh soil to support continued growth.
