Euphorbia breviarticulata 'False Cow's Horn'

Euphorbia breviarticulata 'False Cow's Horn' is a unique and intriguing succulent, part of the extensive Euphorbia family. This variety, often referred to as 'False Cow's Horn', garners attention for its unusual growth patterns and striking appearance, resembling the cow's horn, yet distinct in its own right.

This plant is characterized by its thick, segmented stems that grow upright or slightly sprawling. The segments are short and stout, giving the plant a chunky appearance. Each segment is adorned with prominent, horn-like protrusions that are less elongated than those of Euphorbia grandicornis, hence the name 'False Cow's Horn'. These protrusions, along with the ridges on the stems, create an interesting texture. The color of the stems ranges from green to a grayish hue, and they may exhibit a reddish tinge when exposed to ample sunlight.

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
