Euphorbia triangularis (River Euphorbia) - Oude Rijn, Leiden, the Netherlands 5 Jan 2009 Leo
Native: Found along a band along the coast of southern Africa; from just east of Port Elizabeth in the Eastern Cape, through KwaZulu-Natal, widespread throughout Swaziland, and in Mozambique only in Maputoland (including the islands) and in bordering areas just north of there. This particular plant, and most of the Euphorbia triangularis clones being marketed come from the Eastern Cape; eastwards from this region the stems are usually 5-angled.
