Euphorbia Horida
Euphorbia horrida, also known as African Milk Barrel or Dragon Bones Tree, is a striking succulent native to the arid regions of South Africa.
Appearance:
Stem: Stout, cylindrical, and columnar, resembling a cactus. It is covered in prominent, vertical ridges adorned with pairs of short, sharp spines.
Color: The stem is typically grayish-green but can vary, sometimes displaying reddish or brownish hues, especially when exposed to ample sunlight.
Size: Can grow up to 5 feet tall and 1 foot wide, depending on the variety and growing conditions.
Growth Habits and Care:
Sunlight: Thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade.
Soil: Requires well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix, to prevent root rot.
Watering: Drought-tolerant once established, water moderately during the growing season and sparingly in winter.
Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures but can tolerate light frost if kept dry.
Maintenance: Minimal maintenance required, remove any dead or damaged branches.
Additional Information:
Euphorbia horrida 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 unique shape and texture of the stem, combined with its architectural form, make it a visually interesting and attractive addition to any succulent collection.
The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm 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.
