Euphorbia ingens – Candelabra Tree

The Euphorbia ingens (Candelabra Tree) is admired for its striking, architectural beauty, featuring thick, upright branches that grow in a graceful candelabra form. Its smooth blue-green stems reflect light softly, giving it a calm yet powerful presence in outdoor landscapes. The subtle ridges and small spines add texture without overwhelming its clean silhouette, making it both bold and elegant. As it matures, the tree becomes a commanding focal point, valued for its sculptural form, resilience, and timeless desert charm.

🌞 Light:

Euphorbia ingens prefers full sun to bright direct light. It grows best with at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily. Partial sun is tolerated, but growth may be slower and less compact.

💧 Watering:

Water sparingly, as Euphorbia ingens is highly drought tolerant. Water deeply, then allow the soil to dry out completely before watering again.

✂️ Pruning :

Pruning is rarely needed and should only be done to control size or remove damaged branches.
