Euphorbia has to be one of the most weirdly interesting species of plants. The family Euphorbiaceae contains around 2000 different species with almost half of these being categorised as succulents. There are not many other families of plants that have such a wide and eclectic range of species within them. Species can range from annual to perennial, herbaceous shrubs to full-grown trees, being armed with vicious spikes to growing soft and velvety foliage. They really do have something for everyone but the thing that brings them all together as one happy family is the milky white latex sap they produce to heal their wounds and protect them from herbivores.
