Succulent Euphorbia 'Dragon Bone'

Dragon Bones Euphorbia 🐉🌵 is loved for its angular branching stems and bold sculptural shape, giving it a dramatic desert look that stands out fast on a sunny shelf or plant stand. It does best in very bright light indoors or outdoors in warm weather, where it can hold a compact shape and stay happy with minimal fuss. This is a beginner-friendly succulent as long as you remember it prefers dry conditions over frequent watering. Pro tip: let the soil dry fully between waterings and handle with care, because broken stems can leak irritating sap 💧.
