Bring bold texture and desert charm into your home with the Indian Corn Cob Plant (Euphorbia mammillaris) — a rare-looking, cactus-like succulent known for its upright “corn cob” stems and tiny toothpick-like spines. This striking plant is extremely low-maintenance, drought-tolerant, and perfect for sunny windowsills, indoor plant shelves, or patio containers.

Despite its cactus appearance, Euphorbia mammillaris is actually a euphorbia (not a true cactus), making it a fun statement plant for succulent collectors and beginners alike. It thrives with bright light and minimal watering, and its architectural shape instantly elevates any plant display.

☀️ Planting & Care Instructions

  • Sunlight: Bright indirect light to full sun (best color and growth with strong light)
  • Soil: Well-draining cactus/succulent soil mix

Euphorbias produce a milky white sap that can irritate skin and eyes.

I literally never write reviews but felt compelled to write one for this sunscreen because I was very caught off guard by all the positive reviews. This sunscreen leaves the most insane white sheen that never soaks in and gets on EVERYTHING. I put this on and drove to the beach and had sunscreen on my car seat, the steering wheel, the center console, the door, EVERYWHERE! It took forever to clean up and was such a hassle and that was after having let the sunscreen soak into my skin for an hour. Also the sunscreen is really thick and difficult to spread and makes you look ghostly white. Plus, the sunscreen has a really odd odor that reminded me of play dough? That might not be a negative thing for everyone but I found it unpleasant. There are definitely better mineral sunscreens out there. For the price I expected a much better product.

Sticky and white
Style: SPF 50
The sunscreen has a very sticky and thick texture. It will keep you from getting sunburnt, but it will also leave you with a white color.

Good sunscreen
Style: SPF 50
Super good coverage and it lasts a long time in the sun and even through water activities. The only negative is the white cast. Not as bad as others but just be aware it doesn’t fully rub in.

Great sunscreen & works for kids - even used in resorts!
Style: SPF 50
Terrific! I don’t feel it is as good as chemical ones but my favorite non-chemical one. Used on a long vacation and it did the job! Also didn’t cause pimples like other thick versions of this.

Protection

I love this product, especially my husband because it’s all-natural. It contains minerals that leave a slight white residue on the face. While it would be nice to have a clearer texture, it does a beautiful job of protecting you from the sun.
