Euphorbia bubalina (rare succulent shrub, drought tolerant, hardy, seed-grown)

Description: Euphorbia bubalina This South African endemic is a succulent shrub that forms a main stem with many side branches as it matures, but as a young plant it resembles a miniature palm tree. The soft green leaves are borne on the newest growth at the end of the main stem, creating a canopy that produces the palm-like look. The cyathia (Euphorbia inflorescence) are yellow and green and bloom through most of the year. You'll receive one of the 5" tall rooted seedlings in the first four photos, bare-root, without soil or pot. The other photos are of my parent plant, from which this seedling was grown. For best growthSoil/Medium: coarse, well draining, cactus/succulent soil; these do best in a chunkier mix that includes extra lava or pumice)Light: minimum 3-4 hours direct sun; can take full to part sunWater: deeply every 2 weeks, let the soil dry between waterings. Euphorbia bubalina will eventually take the form of a small shrub a few feet tall, and with ample sun the stem and leaves will color up nicely, showing hues of reds and pinks mingling with the greens. The stems create an interesting pattern as they grow, giving this lovely plant even more visual interest and adding to the palm effect. This plant can take full sun or light shade, growing more slowly and compact in strong sun, and more open and lush in shadier conditions. *All Euphorbia contain a toxic white sap.
