Description

This evergreen succulent reaches 2'-3' tall and has brilliant, year round red flowers. It makes a good barrier plant because of the long spines on the stems. This plant likes full sun and doesn't require much water. The flowers are actually 2 semi- circular bracts that form an oval shape with a yellowish center. This plant is poisonous.

Water Saving Tip:

Apply a layer of mulch around plants to reduce moisture loss.

Organic mulches, such as shredded bark, compost or aged sawdust will also break down and improve the soil.
