the grim reaper fears but one thing: euphorbia trigona

i am quite confident i could go on a year long holiday where i completely forget about this plant, come home and see it looking slightly uncomfortable, proceed to drown it for a week straight, and it would just be aroused by the abuse and start flowering.

It does not give a singular fuck about anything and will at most pause growing if it doesn't have the resources needed, and it can grow from a single tiny piece into a whole-ass tree. if this species wasn't a slow-growing cactus-like plant i would live my life in terror that it take over the earth.

Interesting plant - for those wondering I looked it up aka African milk tree. Need to keep it away from pets and kids though.
