To maximize the production of fruit from the plant it is essential that the foliage be kept in good shape with proper maintenance. If the plant doesn't get enough water, it can get root rot very quickly and stop producing fruit. Other problems include fungus infections and the natural withering caused by the ripening.

Euphorbia ingens, also known as the African Candelabra Tree or Good Luck Cactus, is a fast-growing succulent that can grow from 36 to 49 feet (12 to 15 meters) tall when grown outdoors and considerably shorter when planted as a plant for the house.
