The Coralbush Plant Story
Where is it from?
Native to Mexico and the Caribbean. The Coralbush plant has been introduced to gardens and can now be found growing throughout South America, and parts of Africa.
Who is the Coralbush plant?
The Coralbush plant gets its name from the showy coral red blooms. These blooms appear on thin stalks in a clustered formation resembling a coral reef!
Sometimes called the Guatemala Rhubarb plant, we highly suggest not eating the plant. IT belongs to the euphorbia genus. When the stems or leaves break they release a mildly toxic milky sap.
Is the Coralbush the right plant for me?
The Coralbush is a fast growing plant that prefers a bright sunny spot to spend its days. The whimsical little leaves fan out giving it a dreamy appearance. Pop the Coral bush in your sun room or living room.
