Product Description     
Euphorbia tortilis, also known as Twisted Spurge or Spiral Euphorbia, is a fascinating succulent native to the arid regions of southern Africa. It features a central, columnar stem that twists and spirals as it grows, creating a unique and sculptural form. The stem is typically pale green with subtle reddish or purplish markings. Small, paired spines adorn the ridges of the stem, adding texture and visual interest. Tiny, rudimentary leaves may appear on new growth but quickly fall off, leaving the twisted stem as the main focal point.

Height: Up to 3ft 
Hardiness: USDA 10+ 
Flower Color: Yellow 
Other Names: Spiral Euphorbia 

Growing Instructions:  
Thrives in full sun to partial shade. It can handle direct sunlight but should be protected from the harshest midday rays.  Requires well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix. Adding perlite or sand can enhance drainage.  Drought-tolerant once established; water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Prefers warm temperatures but can tolerate some cool temperatures if kept dry. Minimal maintenance required. It is a relatively slow-growing succulent, making it a great choice for those seeking a low-maintenance plant.

Ships in the 3.5” pots shown in the pictures. You will receive a plant that is very similar to the plants pictured however they may have grown some or depending on the time of year, they could be semi-dormant. Some plants will drop their leaves in winter - Crown of Thorns, Buddha Belly Jatropha, Etc. I have only grown plants in Florida and will send out anything I feel comfortable will grow here. It is up to you to know the conditions that these plants grow in the part of the country you reside. If your plant arrives rotting or dead, we will replace it for you. Please contact me within 24 hours of delivery of your plants. It is my duty to get you a live healthy plant- a few broken leaves or small stems not counting as this is normal. Again, we cannot guarantee that some leaves won’t be broken or fall off- It is normal to lose some depending on the variety (Sedum, Echeveria, Cotyledon, Graptopetalum, etc...). Many kinds of leaves will re-root and grow into a new plant. Some that do not are Cotyledon and Aeonium. After 24 hours, my job is done and it is up to you (The buyer) to know how to keep it alive. We take great care in packaging our plants and problems have been VERY rare. 

Heat packs are available for purchase with your item to use if cold weather is expected at the time of shipment. (Link to Heat Pack: bit.ly/40ugd4J ) Keep in mind some plants we carry are very tropical and even cold, not freezing, temperatures can kill them. I will cancel any order I feel won't make it safely to its destination without freezing. 📌IF YOU EXPECT COLD WEATHER, PLEASE PURCHASE A HEAT PACK! 📌 I don't make any profit off of them because they are a necessary shipping item in winter. 

Care Instructions are included with your order. Don’t hesitate to reach out to me for any extra advice you may require. We want you to be successful with our babies!  If you have any questions about this item or others, please message me and I will gladly answer them.
