About S. grantii
Large succulent from east central Africa with leathery apple green leaves splashed with maroon. Inconspicuous flowers. Be very careful to avoid the caustic sap which does not blister right away, but hours later. At North Star Nursery in Faribault, call 507-334-6288 for directions and hours.
About African Milk Bush
Easy to take care of, but will drop its lower leaves to tell you it's being over or under-watered. Up to 20' tall in the tropics, and will grow several inches a month, but in a container with well-drained soil it will stay a manageable size here. Over-winter indoors.
