Euphorbia l\u00e1ctea’s bizarre appearance will add character to your garden that no other plant can. It has three-sided candelabra arms and a tall, lanky stem. The silhouette wobbles. In fact, Euphorbia l\u00e1ctea almost looks like a child’s drawing.<\/p>\n

Adding to the charm of Euphorbia l\u00e1ctea are short spines along the edges. They are small but sharp. The entire plant is green with mottled white stripes. This inspired the common nickname “Spotted Spurge”.<\/p>\n

It doesn’t look like it, but the spotted spurge is a shrub, not a cactus. This is due to the presence of sap and the absence of large flowers. Also unlike cacti, Euphorbia lactea is a tropical plant. It is native to India, Sri Lanka and other areas of tropical Asia.<\/p>\n

All in all, Euphorbia l\u00e1ctea is a challenging plant. It has specific watering needs and is toxic. However, once planted it practically takes care of itself. It is perfect for novice gardeners just starting out in the plant world.<\/p>\n

In ROOTS GARDEN<\/b> we have Euphorbia l\u00e1ctea, so we invite you to visit us to look for your specimen.
