Euphorbia curvirama

A tree-like, candelabra Euphorbia of the Eastern Cape, treated by GBIF as a natural hybrid (Euphorbia ×curvirama). It grows in dense coastal and valley thicket, with mild temperatures all year and rain spread across the seasons, so it wants strong light, a gritty mix and a mild, drier winter rather than a hard rest.
