Euphorbia mammillaris (Corn Cob Plant)

This is the true Corn Cob Plant, differing from the similar Euphorbia fimbriata in having thicker stems (up to 7 cm thick) with a more upright growth habit. These naturally occur in the southern cape where they grow under bushes. They are easy to grow, can take ample water throughout the year but should be protected from frost. Your plant will already be of substantial size and has already started flowering.
