The Euphorbia ampliphylla is a striking succulent tree known for its impressive height and architectural form. It is often planted as an ornamental tree or as a natural barrier due to its thick, spiny branches. Unlike smaller, shrubby species, this one can dominate landscapes with its towering, segmented branches. 

Native to eastern Africa, particularly found in Ethiopia and surrounding regions, the Euphorbia ampliphylla is a large, tree-like succulent that can grow up to 30 feet tall. Its thick, green, columnar stems are ribbed and bear spines along the edges, giving it a cactus-like appearance.

The Euphorbia plant produces small, yellowish-green flowers that emerge from the tips of the stems.

These flowers are not particularly showy but play a crucial role in attracting pollinators, especially bees and other insects.

When it comes to care, the Euphorbia ampliphylla thrives in full sun to bright indirect light.

Outdoors, it should be placed in an area with plenty of direct sunlight, while indoors, a south-facing window is ideal. 

It does well in typical household temperatures but should be kept in a warm environment above 50°F. 

Like most drought-tolerant plants, it requires infrequent watering. Water deeply but allow the soil to dry completely between waterings to prevent root rot.

It prefers a well-drained, specialized  succulent soil, opens in a new tab, sandy, or rocky soil. Adding perlite or pumice can improve drainage. A diluted succulent fertilizer can be applied once a year during the growing season in the spring. 

It is best suited for USDA zones 10-12, where temperatures remain warm year-round.

It is not frost-tolerant and should be brought indoors if temperatures drop below freezing. 

Euphorbia ampliphylla can be propagated through stem cuttings, though caution is required due to its toxic sap.

Cuttings should be left to callous for a few days before planting in well-draining soil. Propagation from seeds is also possible but less common due to the slow growth rate. 

Final Thoughts

Overall, the Euphorbia ampliphylla is a fascinating and dramatic succulent tree that adds height and structure to xeriscapes, desert gardens, or indoor collections. Its resilience, low-maintenance nature, and unique appearance make it a desirable choice for enthusiasts who appreciate bold, sculptural plants. With proper care, this striking Euphorbia can become a long-lived and rewarding addition to any arid plant collection.

One of the few body sunscreens that doesn't trigger my sensory issues
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have sensory sensitivities, so wearing sunscreen is usually a pretty unpleasant experience for me. I can't stand heavy textures, greasy finishes, or that sticky sunscreen feeling that seems to sit on top of the skin all day. I'm also bothered by mineral and matte sunscreens that dry my skin out. It's very hard to find a sunscreen as genuinely comfortable as this one is. I bought the Coola Sunblock Body Lotion because several reviews mentioned that it actually feels like a regular lotion once applied, but I honestly assumed it still wouldn't work for me. I was genuinely shocked the first time I used this. The texture feels silky and lightweight, absorbs quickly, and leaves my skin feeling soft rather than coated or oily. It really does wear more like a comfortable body lotion than a traditional sunscreen, and I don't notice any residue or oily feel at all, which is amazing. I also love that it's fragrance-free, which makes it even easier for me to tolerate, especially with sensitive skin and sensory issues. Coola Sunblock Body Lotion is one of the very few body sunscreens I've tried that I actually enjoy wearing, and it works perfectly. I am very fair and burn easily, but I had no burning or redness on my first outside day of the summer while wearing this. It's sunscreen that works and that I can actually wear with zero discomfort. Amazing.

Im 63, with fair and sensitive skin. I love this high strength sunscreen that isn't greasy and doesn't have added ingredients and perfumes that bother me and make me break out.

Expensive, but worth it
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
What's the best sunscreen? The sunscreen you'll use consistently. I like Coola because it feels like moisturizer, not sticky gross sunscreen. It's pricey, but I think you get what you pay for with Coola.

Great sunscreen, but too pricey!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love COOLA products. They are a good substitute for my favorite sunscreens by Bare Republic - which was discontinued. Unfortunately COOLA products are very pricey. For that reason, I must use other brands where it makes sense. Trader Joe's spray sunscreen works very well and is $5.99. Coppertone Water Babies works for water sports. I'm saving my $28 COOLA lotion sunscreen for when I need a non greasy odor-free sunscreen, for example when I spend time in the sun followed by lunch out or shopping.
