African Milk Tree ‘Green’ (Euphorbia trigona)

🌞 Aesthetic Description

Upright stems with triangular sides and short spines grow in stacked rows like a living green sculpture. Great for indoor corners or outdoor desert beds.

📚 Scientific Description

Scientific Name: Euphorbia trigona
Common Name: African Milk Tree ‘Green’
Plant Type: Species
Family: Euphorbiaceae
A fast-growing, columnar succulent that’s often mistaken for a cactus. Its vertical stems are ridged and feature small spines and oval leaves along the edges.

🧎 General Botanical Information

Native to Central Africa, Euphorbia trigona is adapted to arid climates, storing water in its thick, upright stems. It can grow several feet tall and naturally branches into a shrubby form. The white latex sap is toxic and should be handled with care. Though it rarely flowers in cultivation, it’s prized for its bold vertical form and fast growth.

ðŸĄ Care Description

Give it plenty of bright light and let it dry out between waterings. Water deeply but infrequently and always use well-draining soil. Protect from frost and keep away from curious pets.
