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.

BUY IT!!
Color: Blue Dog Ball Launcher, Size: One-Size
Great product!! Releases the ball nicely and saves my arm from dying at the end of the day. The construction of it feels flimsy but for someone who uses it AT LEAST 3 hours EVERYDAY, I would say it's pretty good quality. Would highly recommend!!

Fantastic tool for dog owners!
Size: 1-pack
This is a great tool to keep your dog active without getting your hands messy! I discovered it launches better when you don't push the ball completely into the holder, but just have it in partially. The ball included is nice and bouncy. The launcher also works with Kong balls.

Endless Fetch Fun—Perfect for My Jack Russell!
Size: 1-pack
This ball launcher has been a total game-changer for fetch time with my Jack Russell! She has tons of energy, and this helps me keep up without wearing out my arm. It works great with most standard tennis balls, so I don’t have to worry about tracking down special ones.

It is good for small yards but not so good for distance.
Size: 1-pack
Getting used to a ball thrower takes practice. This one is no exception. The angle is off for me. If I use it as an extension of my arm it goes straight to the ground, but once I got the hang of it. Balls launch with great height. Distance isn't a feature for this tool.

Get a longer launcher. This only throws 30 ft
Size: 1+3pack
Buy a longer launcher!!! I got what I paid for! A 12.2 inch launcher does not build up enough energy to throw it very far and it is tweaking my elbow. The dog is very disappointed since the ball only goes about 30 feet. I’ll keep it for small dog park use. The balls are hard and my 22 pound Cockapoo can’t get it to squeak.
