Origin: Euphorbia obesa is an endemic species, found in Kendrew, a small area of the Great Karroo, the Northern Cape region of South Africa, in the Graaff-Reinet district.
Habitat: They are found growing in full sun or (more frequently) under the protection of low shrubs and sometime among low boulders in fairly sandysoils. Their colour blend so well with the surroundings that it is often quite difficult to distinguish them. They are found at an altitude ranging from 300 to 900 m above sea level, a place where there is no significant frost. The habitat is very stony and hilly with summer rainfall ranging from 200-300 mm per annum, falling mainly in thunder showers. Summers are very hot: the average daily maximum about 26 degrees centigrade and the minimum about 11 degrees centigrade. Light frost occurs during the winter months.

Cultivation: It likes a sunny position, but it can also be grown outdoors where the frost is not too severe. It can tolerate temperatures down to -5°C (-10° if the roots are kept dry). It does best in a mineral soil, but is tolerant of a wide range of soil types. Good drainage is essential. Water sparingly during the summer months and keep dry in winter. It is a slow-growing, long-lived plant, and once established, it will be content in its position and with its soil for years. It can tolerate moderate shade, and a plant that has been growing in shade should be slowly hardened off before placing it in full sun, as the plant will be severely scorched if moved too suddenly from shade into sun.
