🌵 Candelilla (Euphorbia antisyphilitica) – A Cold-Hardy, Low-Care Beauty for Your Garden

Add Candelilla, a rugged succulent from the Euphorbia family, to your garden for a low-maintenance, cold-hardy touch of beauty. Native to the Chihuahuan Desert, this plant features striking powdery blueish-gray stems that grow to about 1 foot tall and 4 feet wide—ideal as groundcover or in containers. Its hardy nature and unique appearance make it a standout choice for any garden or landscape.

Why You’ll Love Candelilla:

💧 Drought-Tolerant: Thrives with minimal water once established, making it perfect for xeriscaping and low-water gardens.

🌈 Unique Aesthetic: The blue-gray stems offer a striking visual contrast, making it perfect for rock gardens, xeriscaping, or as a textural element in your landscape.

🛠️ Low Maintenance: Easy to care for and requires very little attention once established—perfect for busy gardeners.

🌱 Versatile Landscaping Uses:

🌿 Groundcover: Its spreading habit makes it ideal for sunny, dry areas, adding texture while helping with soil stabilization.

🪴 Container Gardening: Perfect for patios, balconies, and decks due to its compact size and easy-care nature.

Euphorbia design and application suggestions:

Our Euphorbias are tolerant of a wide range of lighting conditions. They will be happy outdoors, indoors, on patios or in a sunroom. The Euphorbias we offer also come in very unique shapes and lend themselves as unique single pieces or used to create contrast amongst other plants.

The Euphorbia royaleana looks like a columnar cactus in growth habit. As temperatures warm and days get longer, this Euphorbia starts to grow large succulent leaves. The Moroccan mound is a very unique and symmetrical looking Euphorbia, great in a pot or in the landscape. Firesticks are full of drama when the stems turn red. Candelia and Pedilanthus look great in containers or used as succulent groundcovers and border plantings in the landscape. Euphorbias also offer tremendous disease and critter resistance. In an outdoor setting, you will rarely see Euphorbias being browsed on by animals.

Plant is Thriving...

...and I haven't even put it in the ground yet! I have a temporary "nursery" set up while our backyard landscaping is being completed, so the Candelilla is in a temporary pot. But it it healthy and thriving!

Very Happy

I had a specific plant that I needed to add to an existing landscape which I couldn’t find anywhere except here at the Cactus Outlet. My plants arrived quickly, well packaged and were healthy and good sized. I had a question about planting and when I used their online questions site I got an answer within minutes! I would definitely recommend and will use them again myself Dan

This is a Fantastic Shop!

My cactus was promptly shipped and arrived securely packaged. The quality of the plant is top notch. As advertised, this plant looks interesting in a container that is on display in my backyard. I ordered the five gallon and it has more than the minimum 12 stems. Thank you. I will order again.
