Euphorbia pseudoglobosa

Euphorbia pseudoglobosa is a compact, intriguing succulent that catches the eye with its spherical form and striking, textured surface. Known for its unusual, globe-shaped growth, this fascinating Euphorbia is dotted with fine, spiny projections that create an almost starry effect across the plant’s surface. Its rich green colour is occasionally complemented by subtle hints of purple, adding a touch of warmth to its otherwise minimalist appearance.

Native to South Africa, this small yet hardy species thrives in bright, indirect light and requires very little attention, making it an ideal choice for both beginner and experienced plant enthusiasts. Its slow-growing nature and striking, geometric shape make it perfect for windowsills, desks, or small containers where its compact form can be fully appreciated.

Euphorbia pseudoglobosa is a hardy plant that requires well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix, and benefits from infrequent watering. Like many euphorbias, it stores water in its stems and can go without frequent hydration, especially during the cooler months. Care should be taken when handling, as the plant’s milky sap can be irritating to the skin and eyes.

For garden centres and houseplant retailers, Euphorbia pseudoglobosa offers a unique, visually captivating plant for succulent collections, terrariums, or modern decor. Its compact size, combined with its striking appearance and low-maintenance nature, makes it a perfect fit for those seeking something special and sustainable.
