Euphorbia aeruginosa 'Miniature Saguaro'

Euphorbia aeruginosa is a fascinating and striking succulent native to southern Africa, known for its unique, architectural form and vibrant blue-green coloration. This species features upright, cylindrical stems that grow in a branching, shrub-like structure, giving it a spiky, sculptural appearance. The stems are covered with prominent, sharp, spiny ribs and have a bluish-green hue, which intensifies under bright sunlight. Euphorbia aeruginosa is a slow-growing plant, making it a great addition to succulent collections and xeriscapes. It thrives in well-draining soil and requires minimal water once established, making it highly drought-tolerant. Though it prefers bright, indirect light, it can tolerate some direct sun but should be protected from frost. As a member of the Euphorbia family, it produces a milky, toxic sap when cut or damaged, so care should be taken when handling the plant. This species is ideal for warm climates, typically found in USDA hardiness zones 10-11.
