Euphorbia subscandens

Pleasant succulent characterized by slender and perfectly cylindrical stems, which do not reach remarkable heights but tend to branch abundantly giving rise to a kind of thorny bush absolutely original. The epidermis, of a characteristic opaque emerald green, assumes with the time peculiar darker longitudinal streaks, sometimes violaceous. Pairs of brownish spines of very variable length emerge from the stems, well spaced between each other, which tend to take on greyish notes with maturity. The exemplar has a decidedly original look especially in the world of succulents, as its characters are often associated with those of a real cactus!
