Hailing from the sun-drenched slopes of the Atlas Mountains in Morocco, Euphorbia resinifera is a remarkable succulent that adds a touch of the exotic to any garden. Its unique form and texture make it a captivating addition to xeriscapes, rock gardens, or even container plantings.

Distinctive Features:

  • Spiny Stems: Its upright, four-sided stems are densely covered in short, brown spines, creating a fascinating and textural landscape. This gives the plant a sculptural quality, reminiscent of miniature cacti.

  • Mounding Habit: Over time, Euphorbia resinifera forms a low, spreading mound, reaching up to 2 feet in height and a sprawling 6 feet in width. This makes it an excellent ground cover option for slopes or areas with poor soil.

  • Subtle Flowers: In late winter to early spring, small, yellow flowers emerge near the stem tips. While not showy, these delicate blooms add a subtle touch of color to the plant's overall appearance.

  • Drought Tolerance: One of the most appealing features of Euphorbia resinifera is its exceptional drought tolerance. Once established, it thrives with minimal water, making it an ideal choice for xeriscaping and low-water gardens.

Thriving in Your Garden:

  • Light: This sun-loving succulent thrives in full sun, but it can also tolerate partial shade.

  • Soil: Ensure well-draining soil, even tolerating clay soil when planted on a slope. This adaptability makes it a versatile choice for various garden conditions.

  • Water: Water infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Remember, its drought tolerance is one of its greatest assets.

Perfect For:

  • Xeriscaping: With its low water requirements, Euphorbia resinifera is a perfect fit for water-wise landscapes.

  • Rock Gardens: Its unique form and texture blend beautifully with other succulents and rocks, creating a visually striking display.

  • Ground Cover: Utilize its spreading habit to create a living tapestry on slopes or challenging areas with poor soil.

  • Containers: Plant it in pots or containers to bring a touch of the exotic to patios, balconies, or indoors as a unique houseplant.

The first two photo serves a display purpose only. The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
