Description

The listing, African Euphorbia Candelabra Tree has ended.

This is a very unusual plant. It's tropical, from Africa and each branch is triangular shaped with spines along the ridges and leaves! It will grow as tall as you let it. Mine is around 8 feet tall. It doesn't need a lot of water, but when it's thirsty the leaves will start to drop. I water it every two weeks to prevent that.
You will receive a cutting, which will grow- (my plant started out as a 4" cutting. It's now about 15 years old, so it's not fast growing.)
The candelabra tree is a Euphorbia that can grow up to forty feet tall with many upright cactus-like limbs and many spines, but they have very small deciduous leaves.
You will receive a 6" cutting in a moist wrap, ready for planting.
I can send a PayPal invoice for the $4 shipping charge.

Questions & Comments

I live in N.E. Arkansas. Would it grow here? Will it grow in a container?

Would you send planting and care instructions?

This is a tropical indoor container plant that should be placed next to a window for indirect light.

Yes, they are very unusual. It doesn't have needles, but it has spines and leaves.

Would you send care instructions, and planting instructions if there is anything special about them?

On top of this plant being exotic to say the least, it is also easy to care for. Put it next to a window for indirect light, water it once a week and it's happy! There is almost a cactus element in it that makes it very resilient, and also easy to grow. Plant the cutting, keep it moist, not wet and it will grow. After it gets it's start, then water once a week.

Oh my Gosh, this looks awesome. I have a plant that looks similar to this but has purple on it, would you happen to know if it might be about the same thing?

Fanned & Watching :)
