Succulents

Euphorbia hamata

Branching green stems and small, pale leaves give Euphorbia hamata a wonderfully sculptural look. Its twisting, open form makes each plant feel like a little living artwork on a sunny shelf.

Native to South Africa, this unusual succulent is a lovely choice for collectors who enjoy plants with character. Give it a bright spot, a well-draining mix, and a light touch with the watering can to let its distinctive shape take center stage.

Care Guide

• Light: Bright light; introduce direct sun gradually to avoid scorching.
• Water: Water when the soil is dry, allowing excess water to drain away.
• Soil: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent mix in a pot with drainage.
• Temperature: Keep warm and protect from frost.
• Safety: Damaged stems may release milky sap that can irritate skin and eyes. Handle with care and keep away from pets and children.

A quietly striking addition to a succulent collection.
