Euphorbia Pseudocactus 'Candelabra Spurge'

Euphorbia pseudocactus as its name suggest could be easily mistaken for a cactus. It has a multibranched candelabra shape and grows to up to 1m tall. It originates on the subtropical coast of South Africa.

What beautiful light green "brush strokes".

[Wylie]

great details in these shots. The Euphorbia are a very broad ranging genus aren't they!!

@elza it is like brushstrokes - I love your imagery

@pusspup they are indeed and very unique and interesting plants - wait until I get to the rhipsalis species - they are gorgeous too :)

I was going to say this reminds me of cactus. Those thorns!

The green branches look so nice until you see those stickers! Interesting plant. So if it's not a cactus is it a succulent?

I really like the close-up and details

@olivetreeann apparently all cacti are succulents, but not all succulents are cacti - just learned that ha ha - this euphorbia is a succulent but not all are.....

It so interesting how all life forms, including plants want to survive, want to ward off predators - I bet these spiky plants keep a lot of animals away
