The Pincushion Euphorbia (Euphorbia ferox) is a small, spiny succulent shrublet native to the Great Karoo area in South Africa, specifically from Graaff Reinet to Beaufort West. Thriving alongside Euphorbia esculenta, it dominates certain locations in the region. This succulent branches at the base, forming rounded clusters up to 60 cm in diameter. Its columnar stems, resembling green corncobs with thorns, measure about 5 cm in diameter. The numerous spines, spaced 6 mm apart, are stout, rigid, and range from 1 to 6 cm in length, transitioning from reddish to purple and finally grey. Euphorbia ferox exhibits variability across its distribution, with differences in appearance within and between populations, making it a fascinating and adaptable species in its natural habitat.
