Euphorbia as a graft host
    #11826358 - 01/14/10 12:10 AM (14 years, 2 months ago)

I was told that the only cactus with leaves made a very good stock for grafting onto. In my yard I have this plant which i believe to be a euphorbia ... I would be very grateful for an id as well as someone to explain to me the flaws in my reasoning. otherwise i am totally going to use this as a rootstock for something.

It is a succulent I know, is it a cactus? I know that cacti are all succulents, but is this a cactus?

Euphorbias are not cacti.

^^This.


Cacti have areoles, that is what separates them from succulents.

Not sure what the species is but they should form seedpods after those flowers, euphorbias usually have pods with 3 segments that launch the seeds away once they're fully dry. You could try picking the pods once they dry before they split or you could put baggies over the pods to keep the seeds from flying away.
