Bring a unique, otherworldly texture to your garden with the Candelilla Wax Plant (Euphorbia antisyphilitica). This striking succulent forms a clump of slender, upright stems coated in a natural silvery-blue wax, creating a surreal and beautiful visual effect. Perfect for adding a modern touch to rock gardens or xeriscapes, it typically grows to about 2 feet tall and wide. As a native to the deserts of Texas and Mexico, it is exceptionally drought-tolerant and thrives in full sun, making it a perfect low-maintenance choice for gardeners in USDA zones 7 and 8. Its unusual appearance and milky sap provide a high level of resistance to deer and javelina. For the best results, plant your Candelilla in a location with excellent drainage. Blend your native soil with Watters Premium Mulch, and use a light application of Watters 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food to give it a gentle nutritional boost without encouraging weak, leggy growth.
