Assorted Crown of Thorns (Euphorbia milii)
Crown of Thorns is a tough, sun-loving succulent that delivers long-lasting color with very little day-to-day maintenance. Its bright bracts keep showing up in waves through much of the year when it gets strong light, making it a reliable flowering houseplant for sunny windows. The spiny stems and sturdy habit give it a bold, sculptural look that holds its shape instead of wilting or flopping. Because this is an assorted selection, flower color and exact growth habit can vary, but the easy-care performance stays consistent.
Distinctive Features
This plant combines thick, thorny stems with small leaves and showy, long-lasting bracts that may be red, pink, yellow, orange, or creamy tones depending on the cultivar. It can bloom repeatedly with bright light, and it tolerates dry indoor air better than many flowering plants. The milky sap is irritating and the spines are sharp, so it is best placed where it will not be brushed by kids or pets.
Growing Conditions
- Sun: Full sun outdoors and the sunniest possible window indoors, with bright light essential for steady flowering.
- Soil: Fast-draining cactus or succulent mix, and never allow the pot to sit in water.
- Water: Let the mix dry down between waterings, then water thoroughly and drain, reducing frequency in winter.
- Zones: USDA Zones 9 to 11 outdoors, typically grown as a houseplant elsewhere.
- Mature Size: About 1 to 3 feet tall and 1 to 2 feet wide indoors, and potentially larger in warm outdoor climates.
Ideal Uses
- Focal Point: Use as a focal point in a bright window where the bract color and sculptural stems can stand out year-round.
- Sunny Windowsills: Place in high light areas where many houseplants struggle, especially south or west exposures.
- Containers: Grow in pots with sharp drainage for a clean, upright accent that stays neat and contained.
- Dry Indoor Spaces: Use in rooms with lower humidity where flowering plants often disappoint.
- Warm Patio Seasonal Accent: Move outdoors to full sun after frost for a tough, blooming container plant in summer.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering: Water sparingly and always let the soil dry, since overwatering is the most common cause of decline.
- Pruning: Prune lightly to shape and encourage branching, wearing gloves and avoiding contact with sap.
- Handling: Wear gloves and eye protection when cutting, and keep sap away from skin and eyes.
- Light: Increase light if bloom slows and stems stretch, rotating the pot for even growth.
- Temperature: Protect from cold drafts and avoid exposing the plant to temperatures near freezing.
Why Choose Crown of Thorns?
- Repeat Color: Produces long-lasting bracts in recurring flushes when given strong light.
- Drought Tolerance: Handles missed waterings better than most flowering houseplants.
- Sun Window Friendly: Thrives in bright exposures where many indoor plants struggle with heat and light.
- Architectural Form: Spiny stems and upright structure add a bold, sculptural look year-round.
- Easy Routine: Simple care, bright light and dry-down watering, keeps it performing reliably.
Crown of Thorns is ideal when you want a flowering plant that behaves like a succulent: resilient, sun-happy, and not needy. Give it sharp drainage, strong light, and a dry-down watering rhythm, and it will reward you with repeat color and a clean, sculptural silhouette. Place it thoughtfully for safety, and it becomes a durable indoor statement plant that keeps earning its spot.

Does the job, but assembling by yourself is a nightmare
Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Black
Does it do the job? Yes, although as others said there are small gaps but it's not a huge deal. The price is also good. But the reason I'm giving it a 3/5 is simply because the assembly for this was a complete nightmare. I honestly don't think I would recommend this to anyone unless they have another person to help them assemble it, because doing it by myself was terrible. I don't think I'd buy this again, I think I'd opt to just spend a bit more money and save myself the trouble personally.

Reasonably adequate room divider
Size: 4 Panel-88'', Color: Beige
I'm reviewing this as I assemble it.
Couple things:
1. I didn't expect as much assembly. I've ordered dividers before and they more-or-less came as one unit. Sometimes the panels needed screwing together. These require complete assembly and come largely as three rods: two make up vertical columns and snap together. Another one (called part "C") makes the horizontal columns and you have two of these per panel (one attaches to part "A" and the other part "B"). These parts are metal with a plastic shim. Using the wood screws to attach to part "C" is a real pain in the neck. There's not much holding the panel in place so it's a little tricky.
One tactic I've found while I'm assembling that works for the initial connections from parts A and B to their respective "C" rods is to hold the screw in place with a screw driver and then rotating the rod around the screw. This will do a number on your hands if you aren't wearing gloves. This obviously doesn't work when completing the connection.
Using a driller driver on this is really near impossible because there isn't anything you can use to secure it in place. You can use it on the first panel, but as it gets longer, it becomes increasingly difficult and because it isn't wood, it's really tight. I considered drilling larger pilot holes but since there are only 4x4=16 screws I need to screw in, I just decided to use my screw driver to complete it.
2. Also related to assembly. When completing the panels (attaching parts "A" and "B" to parts "C" that have the cloth cover on it), you have to be careful that when you tighten that side that it isn't loosening the other side. Because the pilot holes are so tight, you can end up rotating the rod, which rotates it in the same direction as looser on the original side. Having someone hold the "C" rod in place while you screw it in is probably the easiest approach. I didn't have a 2nd person, so I just had to keep flipping back and forth and tightening both sides as I screwed it in. Not the worlds biggest deal, but annoying nonetheless.
3. The way the instructions are written, they seem to suggest building this thing progressively; that is, you do panel 1, then 2, connect them together, then do 3 and connect it, etc. I took a different route that I suspect saved me quite a bit of trouble, and I assembled all four panels first and THEN connected everything together.
4. For the love of God make sure you check that the plastic tip is on the same side for every panel. Otherwise, you have to take one side apart again and reverse it. On the bright side, if this happens, you've essentially bored out the pilot holes to be the correct size... which is having me question if I shouldn't have just bored them out to the appropriate width in the first place.
5. Attaching all of the panels together is also an enormous pain in the ass unless you happen to have an 88" long elevated surface. Attaching the legs either requires you to elevate one side, which will invariably twist the inexplicably cheap material in the bottom connectors... or you can attach them sideways... or you can put this thing upright, having two people hold the panels in place while you use the allen wrench to tighten the bolts on the underside. None of those are particularly great options.
NOW on to the utility itself.
1. The panels do let some light through (I didn't believe their advertising, and that was one of the reasons that I bought beige, is that I wanted it to not be too dark). They aren't transparent though, so it isn't that far off from their description. They functionally work great, and keep the mess of wires hidden and when I'm sitting at my desk, actually reflect quite a bit of light into my office. Great!
2. My wife has described these as "the most hideous piece of furniture ever conceived of by man." So it does not have spouse approval factor. Granted, she will seldom be in my office area, so that isn't the end of the world.
3. These are really hard to align in a way that doesn't look a little tacky. There are some plastic connectors but they don't do a bang up job of keeping these in place. Each panel is slightly tilted and it's... quite obvious. I may at some point make my own improvements to these to help make them more level. It's not a particularly expensive product so I wasn't expecting much so it's fine and I'm not going to ding them on the rating because of it.
All said, would I buy this product again? Probably not. It's assembly was ~90 minutes which is about 75 minutes longer than I was anticipating spending on this (not including the 5 minute writeup that I'm doing here). But am I going to return it? Also no, if for no other reason I'd be just as annoyed taking it apart and putting it in the original box to return it.

Beautiful shelves!
Size: 48 Inch, Color: Natural, Size: 48 Inch, Color: Natural
Since new build homes typically don't come with towel rods this was what I envisioned instead. I purchased the hooks separately. The shelves are perfect! I ordered a 36in set as you see with the cream towels and a 48in set that you see with the green towels. They're not loose but not 100% sturdy. I recommend maybe gluing to the wall in addition to the rest and definitely screwing into a stud. They're easy enough to figure out without the instructions. But I will say they're supposed to be screwed in underneath to the rods but they did not come with an appropriate screw for that so I had to use some I already had on hand.

Nice
Size: 30 Inch, Color: Natural, Size: 30 Inch, Color: Natural
Easy to install..comes with small magnetic leveler which made things even easier! Really nice for the price.
Only thing is other than sliding the wood onto the metal brace, there’s only 2 screws that screw wood onto brace so it makes for a slightly wobbly shelf on the brace… although I have 6 screws/anchors holding each brace into the wall so it’s technically quite solid…I’m a bit nervous to keep delicates on the shelves
