About this image
Euphorbia ingens is a species of plant in the genus Euphorbia and the family Euphorbiaceae. It is native to dry areas of southern Africa. It is popularly known as the "candelabra tree", and its milky latex can be extremely poisonous, and a dangerous irritant.
This tall succulent tree with green round-like branches resembling a balloon is 6-8 meters tall. Its trunk is thick. Candelabrum stems have 5 ridges each and are 3.5-7.5 centimeters thick. Segmented sprouts are dark-green. Young sprouts have paired spines 0.5-2 millimeters long, often reflected. Small greenish yellow flowers sit on the ridges of the topmost segment. The plant blooms from autumn to winter. A red round 3-lobed capsule fruit turns purple when ripened.

What my clients say
My wife and I were looking for photos of places we have been to showcase within our home, highlighting some of the adventures that we had been on together. Adam had coincidentally been to a few of the places that we have recently seen. His eye for photography and capturing scenes that we had been to in person are superb! Looking forwards to more adventures with my wife, and seeing Adam's perspective on what those places show.
Very pleased with my order. Everything was as advertised and my order arrived faster than expected. I would highly recommend this.
Beautiful picture!
