Does anyone knows why my Euphorbia obessa is looking like this? I know she is needing a new pot, but I am getting ready to move and I don’t want to do this until I am settle and have her new happy spot. But I am not sure why she is like this.

She looks good. Older cactus get kind of like a bark. I think that might be what you have going on. Normal and happens especially when has pups. My opinion.

I have a similar look to my cactus and have been informed its cork color and look is due to age and potentially lack of sunlight. I think it’s a permanent change as well

Thank you. I just did not know if she was dying. Thank you sooo much🫶🏽

Yes, that really upsetting bottom color is normal in Euphorbia. In fact, I was looking at Euphorbia for sale (at some reputable places) and every single one of theirs has it.

The pic is a bunch of healthy pups I recently snipped and pulled from my plants.
