Origin
The Euphorbia avasmontana originally hails from Namibia, a country in Southwestern Africa. This plant can primarily be found in the rocky terrains of the mountain ranges, usually in erosion spots. The plant genus that the Euphorbia avasmontana belongs to, boasts a vast diversity and can be found all over the world.

Characteristics
The Euphorbia avasmontana is a succulent, which means that it stores water in its thick stem and leaves. This thick, cylindrical trunk contains four to five ribs and grows in a columnar shape. A striking characteristic is its bright yellow flowers, which often bloom in the summer. Despite the nectar-rich flowers, thanks to the thorns on the trunk, the plant takes a defensive stance against grazers.

Care
Constant warmth and sunlight are vital for the growth of the Euphorbia avasmontana. Due to the succulent properties of the plant, it requires relatively little water. For optimal growth, the Euphorbia avasmontana needs a well-draining soil as it suffers in stagnant water. When repotting, it is best to use a cactus or succulent mixture that provides ample drainage for the plant.
