Euphorbia enopla is a heavily branching succulent shrub native to South Africa, characterized by its dense, ribbed green stems and prominent, colorful spines that range from red to purple-black. It forms a compact, rounded clump that resembles a pincushion or a small cactus. This low-maintenance plant thrives in well-drained soil and bright light, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, containers, or as a distinctive houseplant. Like other euphorbias, it contains a toxic milky latex.
