Euphorbia clava
succulent
Description
Euphorbia clava is a fascinating succulent native to South Africa, characterized by its unique, club-shaped stems, which give it its common name. The stems are fleshy, cylindrical, and typically a bluish-green color, often with subtle vertical ribbing. Small, inconspicuous flowers appear on the stems. It thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. As with other euphorbias, the sap is irritating to skin and eyes, so wear gloves when handling. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Propagating this plant is relatively easy by cuttings. Euphorbia clava is a distinctive and easy-care plant that adds a touch of the unusual to any succulent collection or garden. Its structural form makes it a great addition.
