Euphorbia ramiglians

This succulent exemplar native to South Africa has low growth and expands horizontally by turning. Its name derives from the Latin 'ramus' branch and ' glans' which means gland in reference to the cyathial glands which are ramified. They have a short green stem that over time tends to lignify becoming grayish-brown. From the latter come out its fleshy green branches that are equipped with numerous conical and protruding tubercles. From these tubercles depart the elongated, green and short leaves. With the growth of the plant the leaves tend to fall and the tubercles remain scarred. Its small flowers, the cyathia, bloom at the ends of the branches and have colors ranging from green to reddish.
