Euphorbia Trigona African Milk Tree Cactus 12cm pot

This beautiful and easy-to-care plant from Central Africa is also called the African Milk Tree Cactus cathedral cactus, friendship/lucky plant or Abyssinian euphorbia. Common names don’t really describe the plant as this is not a cactus or tree. Sometimes called lucky plant, euphobia plants apparently bring happiness and works as a lucky charm which makes them the perfect housewarming or birthday gift!

This Euphorbia is disguised as cacti with its unique triangular stems covered in sharp thorns and small teardrop leaves along the edges. The centre of the stems is pale green as it bleeds outwards becoming darker. In Africa, its native environment, the plant is often used as hedging due to its vigorous growing nature.
