Cactus are a varied grouping of plants that range from columnar to stout, spherical to twisted, and with plenty of variation in between. Native to arid regions, cacti have evolved to expect lots of light and very little water.

More than 2000 varieties of plants fall under the umbrella term of Euphorbia, varying dramatically in shape, size, and coloration. In addition, it is important to note that Euphorbia's are all categorized by a toxic sap that causes irritation to both animals and people. 

The Rubra is identifiable by its green color, spiky skin and candelabra shape.
