Euphorbia Resinifera, the resin spurge, is a species of spurge native to Morocco, where it occurs on the slopes of the Atlas Mountains. The dried latex of the plant was used in ancient medicine. It contains resiniferatoxin, a capsaicin analog tested as an analgesic since 1997.
Euphorbia resinifera becomes a dense suckering succulent shrub. The stems are a light-green to gray-blue color, almost square, and covered with small brown spines arranged in cymes. It has been in cultivation in California for many years. The plant flowers in summer with small yellow blooms the stems of which dry and become spine-like. This plant's sap contains a high concentration of the toxin resiniferatoxin which is being used as a starting point in the development of a novel class of analgesics. Recent research has shown that this toxin exhibits its effects in a similar fashion to capsaicin, the primary compound found in hot peppers. It is up to one thousand times stronger than pure capsaicin. So all parts of plant are poisonous if ingested and handling the plant may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions.
