All Year Round

Euphorbia trigona Cactus commonly known as African Milk Tree, Marble Column or Cathedral Cactus is a real architectural Indoor with upright green stems featuring reddish maroon coloured spines along the ridges of the stems. Each stem is edged with three to four sided oval green leaves when the plant is young before falling away as the plant matures. NOTE: the decorative pot is not included, it will arrive in a 12cm plastic growing pot.

  • The African Milk Tree despite being referred to as a cactus is actually a succulent. This slow growing houseplant can grow to 6ft in height, living for many years with proper care. It is very low maintenance making it ideal for beginners or for plant lovers as a gift, looking great in a bedroom, living room or as a desk or office plant.

  • The plant is known as an African Milk Tree, due to the milky white sap that comes out when it is cut or broken. Please be careful of the sap as it can be poisonous to pets and can cause skin irritation if you come in contact with it.
