Euphorbia Tortirama
Euphorbia tortirama is a unique and fascinating succulent native to South Africa. It is cherished by collectors for its contorted, twisting branches and its ability to thrive in arid environments.
Appearance:
Branches: The most striking feature is the plant's thick, fleshy branches that twist and turn in a seemingly random fashion, creating a unique and sculptural form.
Spines: Small, paired spines adorn the ridges of the branches, adding texture and a touch of danger to its otherwise whimsical appearance.
Leaves: Tiny, rudimentary leaves may appear on new growth but quickly fall off.
Flowers: In the spring or summer, Euphorbia tortirama may produce small, yellowish-green flowers at the tips of the branches.
Growth Habits and Care:
Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade.
Soil: Requires well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix.
Watering: Drought-tolerant once established; water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings.
Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures but can tolerate some cool temperatures if kept dry.
Maintenance: Minimal maintenance required.
Additional Information:
Euphorbia tortirama is a relatively slow-growing succulent, making it a great choice for those seeking a low-maintenance plant.
It is a popular addition to rock gardens, succulent arrangements, or as a striking specimen plant in containers.
The succulent plant housed in the yellow pot comes in a 210mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
