If you spot a particularly large bush out on the plains of South Africa, that's the one. From a distance, it might look like a delicate grassy plant, but get closer and you'll see that it's made up of slender, round stems—these are the fine, thin Euphorbia. It looks similar to the so-called "Milk Bush E. tirucalli ", but you'll notice some key differences: near the base, it branches out, but towards the tips, the branches don't split much, so it forms a sturdy, radiating silhouette. Its silvery color is an adaptation for surviving the intense sunlight. "Gummifera E. gummifera " also thrives in similar habitats, but differs in size and overall shape.
