Its leaves are arranged oppositely, oval-lanceolate and up to 3.5 cm long. They are noticeable because of their purple-red spots on the underside. The plant has an upright, often red-spotted stem that secretes a white milky sap when damaged. The flowers are small and yellow-green and appear between June and October. The fruit is a three-part, spherical capsule containing brown seeds. Spotted spurge prefers sunny to partially shaded locations and shows a high tolerance to various soil conditions.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

When damaged, Euphorbia maculata releases a milky sap that can cause irritation if it comes into contact with the skin and serious damage if it comes into contact with the eyes. It is therefore recommended to take appropriate protective measures when handling the plant.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
