add a pot to fit this plant
Euphorbia ritchiei (previously known as Monadenium ritchiei) is a compact, sculptural succulent with thick stems and clusters of small, fleshy leaves. Its unusual texture and natural, slightly wild form make it a great addition to any succulent collection.
Slow growing and easy to care for, it’s perfect for desks, shelves or smaller spaces where you want something a little different.
Care
Place in bright, indirect light or a sunny spot. Water sparingly, allowing the compost to dry out completely between waterings. Avoid overwatering, especially in cooler months.
Why we love it
A slightly unusual succulent with a characterful, architectural shape. Low maintenance and compact, it’s ideal if you’re looking for something a bit different from more common varieties.
