Euphorbia horrida, the African milk barrel, forms clumps of thick, deeply ribbed blue-grey columns lined with stout spines, from the dry Karoo of South Africa. Over time it can reach several feet tall and has separate male and female plants.
Germination
Moderate. Soak seed overnight, sow just below the surface in a gritty mix, and keep warm (70–85°F) and lightly moist. Germination usually takes 1–4 weeks and can be uneven.
What you'll receive
Fresh seed in the pack size you choose, with germination instructions included. The first image is an illustration, not a photo of the plant.
Care
Full sun, gritty soil, dry in winter, protect from hard frost. The milky sap irritates skin and eyes.
