Hi guys and gals!
Had this fellow for 15+ years. When I first got interested in cacti this guy was in amongst a box of 15 my parents bought me from the local market. It and a Euphorbia lactea. For some reason I never liked the Euphorbias but
I’m starting to appreciate them.
It’s been growing in the ground outside ever since and enduring temperatures as low as -5C.
Got a cutting to root and keep in a pot now.
Much appreciated,
Cheers,
Troy.

Re: Unknown Euphorbia
