This Euphorbia features vibrant light green stems with three distinct angles and deeply scalloped margins. Along every ridge, long paired spines emphasize the plant's bold, geometric form.
Although commonly mistaken for a cactus, Euphorbias belong to an entirely separate family of succulents. Their fleshy stems act as water reservoirs, allowing them to thrive in hot, arid environments while producing little to no foliage. The result is a sculptural silhouette where the stems themselves become the focal point, gradually branching over time into an impressive candelabra-like form.
Note: Like all Euphorbias, this plant contains a milky white latex sap that can irritate skin and eyes. Handle with care and keep away from pets and children.
