Candelilla
Euphorbia antisyphilitica
Native pencil-stem candelilla forming gray-green upright clumps. Historic wax plant and ultra-tough Chihuahuan Desert native for Texas.
Landscape use

Care
Full sun, rocky soil, almost no water once established. Milky sap is irritating — wear gloves when pruning.
