The Euphorbia obesa, commonly known as the Baseball Plant, is a succulent native to South Africa. It has an unusual and distinctive shape, with a thick stem that gradually tapers off at the top and resembles a baseball. The plant typically grows up to 10 cm in height and width, with the top of the plant reaching up to 20 cm. The leaves of the Baseball Plant are small and fleshy, usually measuring between 1-2 cm in length. They have a glossy green color on top and are grayish-green underneath. The flowers of this succulent are small and yellowish-green in color, appearing from late spring to early summer. In terms of care requirements, the Baseball Plant prefers bright light but can tolerate partial shade for short periods of time. It should be watered regularly during its growing season (spring through fall) but allowed to dry out completely between waterings. This succulent is also very sensitive to cold temperatures so it should be kept indoors or protected from frost if grown outdoors. The Baseball Plant has been cultivated since the mid-1800s when it was first discovered by European botanists exploring South Africa’s Cape Province region. Since then, it has become popular among gardeners due to its unique shape and ease of care requirements.
