Description: Euphorbia trichadenia is a perennial herb with a large cork-like barked rootstock (succulent caudex) 12 cm long and 6-20 cm in diameter, producing annual thin herbaceous or woody prostrate or erect stems to 12 cm high, branching from the base. The leaves are narrow and acute, while the flowers, borne either singly in the forks of the branches or in terminal cymes of three to five, are pale yellowish in colour. The cyathia have leaf-like bracts and the involucral glands have fringed lobes. Euphorbia trichadenia comprises two varieties, in var. gibbsiae N. E. Br. the plant varies much in appearance and are much more hairy.
Derivation deals of specific name: This member of the Euphorbiaceae family was given this name by Ferdinand Albin Pax in 1894. The slender hair-like process of the nectar-glands unusually conspicuous for the genus; the specific name refers to these (from Greek 'trichos', hair and Greek 'aden', gland).
Rootstock (caudex): Tuberous, swollen, 7-12 cm long and 6-20 cm in diameter, narrowing into an underground elongated woody neck (stem), from which the thin aerial branches develop.
Annual stems: One to several, thin, herbaceous or woody prostrate to sub-erect, 2-12 cm high, branching from the base, puberulous (var. gibbsiae) or almost glabrous (var. trichadenia).
Leaves: Sessile, entire, opposite at the flowering nodes and forkings of the stem, alternate elsewhere. Blade thinly coriaceous or perhaps slightly fleshy, 2-10.5 cm long, 1-5 mm broad, linear-lanceolate, acute, apiculate at the apex, cuneate at the base, midrib prominent on the lower surface, usually slightly curved, often longitudinally folded, glabrous on both sides, sometimes ciliate on the narrow cartilaginous margins. Lowest leaves and sometimes those under the involucres (bracts) much smaller, lanceolate, linear-lanceolate or scale-like. Stipules filamentous, 0.5 mm long, quickly deciduous.
Flowers (cyathia): Solitary in the forkings of the stems or sometimes 3–5 in small terminal cymes with rays to 6 cm long, not forking. Bracts leaf-like. Cyathia shortly pedunculate (peduncle less than 3 mm long), to 5 mm long and 8-10 mm across, with funnel-shaped to cup-shaped, involucres, glabrous or minutely puberulous outside, with 5 glands and 5 transversely rectangular or subquadrate fringed lobes. Nectar glands 2-3 mm long, 1.5-5 mm broad, transversely elliptic, palmate or somewhat fan-shaped, inner margin raised, outer margin deeply divided into 3–10 linear or filiform segments 1.75-3 mm long, once or twice forked at the apex, flat or channelled but not corrugated on their upper surface, with the undivided basal part concave or 2-lipped from the inner margin being inflexed. Styles united into a column 2-3.5 mm long, with revolute arms 1.5-2.5 mm long, minutely 2-lobed at the tips.
Male flowers: bracteoles fan-shaped, apex laciniate, feathery; stamens 7.5 mm long, pedicels pubescent.
Female flower: Styles united into a column 2-3.5 mm long, joined to about halfway with spreading, slightly thickened revolute arms 1.5-2.5 mm long, minutely 2-lobed at the tips.
Fruits (capsules): Obtusely 3-lobed, 6-11 mm in diameter, glabrous, exserted on an erect pedicel c. 4 mm long equalling or exceeding the involucre.
Seeds: 3-5 mm long, and up to 4.2 mm in diameter, globose to ovoid, with an acute or obtuse apex; surface thinly and minutely scabrous-puberulous, pale brown without a caruncle
