Euphorbia enopla - Spiny Euphorbia

Euphorbia enopla - Spiny Euphorbia

With its dramatic red spines and chunky green stems, Euphorbia enopla looks like a cactus—but it’s actually a succulent from the Euphorbia family. Native to South Africa, it grows in a striking candelabra shape and is prized by collectors for its alien-like form and architectural presence. A brilliant choice for sunny windowsills or minimalist interiors.

Light
Loves bright, direct sun—ideally 4+ hours a day. A south- or west-facing windowsill is perfect.

Watering
Water sparingly. Let the soil dry out completely between waterings, especially in winter. Euphorbias are prone to rot if overwatered.

Temperature
Happy in average room temperatures year-round but protect from cold draughts. Minimum 10°C in winter.

Potting
Plant in our Savvy Succa mix for excellent drainage. Choose a pot with a drainage hole to keep the roots healthy.

Hot Tips
Euphorbia sap is toxic and can be irritating to skin—avoid contact when repotting or pruning. Wear gloves just to be safe. This spiny friend also appreciates being rotated every so often to grow evenly.

Pet safety
Not safe for pets if nibbled—Euphorbia’s milky sap is toxic to cats, dogs, and humans.
