Euphorbia coerulescens Seeds

Euphorbia coerulescens Seeds

Euphorbia coerulescens is native to southwestern South Africa. It is a freely branching species with many stems raising from the ground. Each fat stem slowly grows to as much as 5 ft high, has four to six angles and is devided into many joints.

It is rather similar to Euphorbia avasmontana, but does not grow quite as large, the stem segments are shorter, the crests of the ribs have a dark (as opposed to a light colored) horny chitinous ridge bearing two-pronged half-inch-long spines, and the color of the stems is never bluish. It is nevertheless a beautiful species and looks very much like a cactus species.
