Euphorbia 'Tirucalli' Firesticks

Euphorbia tirucalli ‘Firesticks’

Bold Colour. Striking Form. Effortless Impact.

Also known as Sticks on Fire or Pencil Cactus, Euphorbia tirucalli ‘Firesticks’ is a dramatic succulent shrub celebrated for its intense, flame-like colour display. Slender, pencil-thin stems shift from fresh green to brilliant shades of yellow, orange, and fiery red, with the strongest colour developing in full sun and cooler weather.

Architectural and eye-catching year-round, this evergreen Euphorbia makes a powerful statement in gardens, large containers, or modern landscape designs. Its vibrant structure and low water needs make it both beautiful and practical.

Features:

• Brilliant seasonal color with glowing red, orange, and yellow stems

• Unique pencil-thin growth habit

• Evergreen and drought-tolerant

• Excellent for landscapes, pots, or as a dramatic focal point

Care Requirements:

• Prefers full sun to bring out the brightest colors

• Plant in well-draining soil

• Water sparingly; highly drought-tolerant once established

• Protect from frost and avoid overwatering

• Handle with care – sap can be irritating to skin and eyes
