What to expect in the box
You will receive the exact Euphorbia clump pictured, about 13 inches tall, shipped rooted and bare root without soil or a pot. After arrival: unbox with thick gloves, the spines are sharp. Let the plant rest in a shaded, dry spot for 2-3 days, then plant in a sandy, fast-draining mix or a gravelly full-sun spot. Wait about a week before the first watering so the roots can settle, then begin a normal soak and dry routine. Some scuffing of spines in transit is normal and does not harm the plant.

Cacti can look slightly dull after a few days in a dark box. Color returns within a week or two of bright light. If your area drops below 40F, we recommend adding a heat pack to your order, as one is not automatically included.

This is the exact plant you will receive. A one of a kind Euphorbia resinifera, the Moroccan Mound, grown into a tight clump of eight or more stems about 13 inches tall in a 1 gallon pot. Each stem is four angled with flat waxy blue green faces, wavy toothed edges, and a pair of short red brown spines at every tooth.

In the Atlas Mountains of Morocco this species builds broad cushion mounds several feet across, and a clump this size is already filling out from the base. It is not a cactus, it is a succulent Euphorbia, and like all of them it has a milky sap that can irritate skin and eyes. Wear gloves if a stem breaks. Honest note: the lowest inch or two of a few outer stems is tan and corky where they sat against the soil, which is normal for a clump this age and does not affect the plant.

Product Details

Cactus Care

Moroccan Mound is tough and nearly carefree. Full sun, sharp drainage, and a dry winter are all it asks.

  • Light: Full sun to bright light. Ease it into full sun over a week or two after shipping so the stems do not sunburn.
  • Water: Soak and dry. Water deeply, then let the mix dry completely before watering again. Keep it nearly dry in winter.
  • Soil: Gritty, fast-draining cactus mix in a pot with a drainage hole, or a gravelly, well drained bed.
  • Temperature: Hardy to a light frost when dry. Protect below about 30 F; outside USDA zones 9b to 11 grow it in a pot and bring it in for winter.
  • Feeding: A diluted cactus fertilizer once or twice in spring and summer.
