The typical form of this beautiful tree Euphorbia is from northeastern Tanzania and southeastern Kenya, mostly in the subtropical regions on rocky hillslopes. These plants are propagated from material originally collected from Kichich Camp in the Mathews Range of central Kenya and are likely a subspecies of the typical form. The branches are 3-4 angled with wavy margins and near-continuous spine shields. The cyathia are yellow. These plants are rooted cuttings in 5-inch pots.
