The Euphorbia bupleurifolia × susannae is a rare and fascinating hybrid, highly prized by succulent collectors. It combines the characteristics of both parent species, creating a compact, sculptural and charming plant.
It typically forms a rounded or elongated caudex, resembling a small textured trunk, from which emerge thin, narrow and often slightly wavy leaves. The foliage, deep green to olive, appears in a rosette at the top, giving the plant an almost "miniature palm tree" appearance. It prefers bright to moderate light. Direct morning or late afternoon sun is ideal, but avoid intense midday sun which can burn the leaves.
Caution, handle with care! The sap contains latex and can cause irritation when in contact with skin and eyes. Risk of toxicity if ingested.
