The Euphorbia ampliphylla is a striking succulent tree known for its impressive height and architectural form. It is often planted as an ornamental tree or as a natural barrier due to its thick, spiny branches. Unlike smaller, shrubby species, this one can dominate landscapes with its towering, segmented branches. 

Native to eastern Africa, particularly found in Ethiopia and surrounding regions, the Euphorbia ampliphylla is a large, tree-like succulent that can grow up to 30 feet tall. Its thick, green, columnar stems are ribbed and bear spines along the edges, giving it a cactus-like appearance.

The Euphorbia plant produces small, yellowish-green flowers that emerge from the tips of the stems.

These flowers are not particularly showy but play a crucial role in attracting pollinators, especially bees and other insects.

When it comes to care, the Euphorbia ampliphylla thrives in full sun to bright indirect light.

Outdoors, it should be placed in an area with plenty of direct sunlight, while indoors, a south-facing window is ideal. 

It does well in typical household temperatures but should be kept in a warm environment above 50°F. 

Like most drought-tolerant plants, it requires infrequent watering. Water deeply but allow the soil to dry completely between waterings to prevent root rot.

It prefers a well-drained, specialized  succulent soil, opens in a new tab, sandy, or rocky soil. Adding perlite or pumice can improve drainage. A diluted succulent fertilizer can be applied once a year during the growing season in the spring. 

It is best suited for USDA zones 10-12, where temperatures remain warm year-round.

It is not frost-tolerant and should be brought indoors if temperatures drop below freezing. 

Euphorbia ampliphylla can be propagated through stem cuttings, though caution is required due to its toxic sap.

Cuttings should be left to callous for a few days before planting in well-draining soil. Propagation from seeds is also possible but less common due to the slow growth rate. 

Final Thoughts

Overall, the Euphorbia ampliphylla is a fascinating and dramatic succulent tree that adds height and structure to xeriscapes, desert gardens, or indoor collections. Its resilience, low-maintenance nature, and unique appearance make it a desirable choice for enthusiasts who appreciate bold, sculptural plants. With proper care, this striking Euphorbia can become a long-lived and rewarding addition to any arid plant collection.

It works! Quality pillow.
Size: Standard (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This does actually provide a cooling effect, and it's very comfortable! The accompanying literature is helpful too. I believe this to be a quality pillow for the price.

Most comfortable pillow I’ve ever slept on
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Crescent White(cooling)
This is the most comfortable pillow I have ever slept on. It doesn't mash down like other pillows. Cradles my neck perfectly plus it’s cool. I broke my neck a couple of years ago and this pillow feels very good and comfortable. Definitely recommend to everyone. Ive used it since May and it’s retained its shape.

Smell
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
The fact that there are not more comments on the smell of these pillows has me worried about some of yall. Listen, I LOVE the weight, and the firmness, it’s perfect for that. However, these pillows are RANK. They have a very strong mildew-ish smell that lingers. I took the outer cover off and washed it and let the pillow air out for a few days, the smell is still very strong when you press your face against it, which one does because it is in fact designed for that purpose. It smells so bad. It’s nauseating. I can smell it through two pillowcases and blanket that I threw on top of them hoping an extra layer would trap the smell. I’ll bake them in the Texas sun tomorrow and hope that helps, because otherwise these are the perfect pillows for someone who wants to feel like they are hugging a torso but can’t stand the sound/feel of someone else breathing. I don’t know…4 stars, if the smell goes away I’ll come back. Update: many many days later. Either they don’t really smell anymore or I got use to it. They’ve held their firmness and shape well. I like them.

Actually Cooling Pillow
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This is a really nice pillow, I was worried it would be too soft or too firm but it's just right and it's actually cooling, it feels cool every time I touch it. I've noticed an improvement in sleep since using it. Would recommend!

Repurchased in King Size – Still Love These Cooling Pillows
Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling), Size: King (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
After using the queen-size version of these pillows for over a year, we purchased the king-size set when we upgraded to a king mattress. Both my husband and I really like them. The cooling feature works well, and we like that each side feels different—when I run cold, I use the softer bamboo side, while my husband prefers the cooler side since he tends to sleep hot. They fit well in our king-size pillowcases and feel supportive in all sleeping positions, whether I’m on my stomach, side, or back. I also appreciate that you can remove some of the filling to adjust the firmness. The covers are washable, which makes them easy to maintain. Overall, we’re very happy with this repurchase and the long-lasting comfort.
