This member of the Euphorbiaceae
was described by Teran & Berlandier in 1832. It is from
Texas and Mexico. Give it a well-drained clay, very little water and lots
of sun. It seems like the caudex will grow up to 20 centimetres in
diameter.
The branches should only get 10 centimetres, but mine seems to get more
than 35 centimetres.
The flowers are pink to red.
According to some books, it should only get 10 cm, but mine raises to 35
centimetres!
