A succulent plant that looks like a cactus. The Red Euphorbia stands out with the coloring of its triangular green and dark red stems. To maintain its color, it is recommended to expose it to bright light. Short spines are placed in pairs along the margins. It is also between the two prickles that small drop-shaped leaves are born. They look like little feathers and bring lightness to her look!
