Euphorbia
Description
Euphorbia mauritanica is a striking, drought-tolerant shrub native to South Africa. It's characterized by its numerous, slender, upright stems that branch out from the base. The stems are a bright green color and have small, inconspicuous leaves that often fall off early. During the growing season, it produces small, yellow flowers. Its overall form is somewhat rounded and dense. It thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, making it well-suited for arid or Mediterranean gardens. As with other euphorbias, the sap is irritating to skin and eyes. Water sparingly, and be careful handling the plant. Euphorbia mauritanica is an eye-catching and easy-care plant that brings a touch of the exotic to any garden.
