African Milk Tree (Euphorbia trigona)

Despite having rather large spines along the stem, these plants are considered a succulent rather than a cactus. You can treat it as you would any other succulent, giving it lots of sun and little water. This plant can grow quite tall and branching if given the right space/light.

The "milk" sap that this plant produces contains latex, and is a known skin irritant. Exercise caution when moving or replanting anything from the Euphorbia genus.
