The same place between the two
Both are poisonous
Both the coral and the bachelor tree belong to the genus of Euphorbiah. Most of these plants are toxic. Like the beam coal, when the stems of the bachelor tree are broken, the white milk flows out, which is toxic and must not be eaten. People abroad also call the bachelor trees as milk trees.
The appearance of the two is similar
The young bachelor trees, like the bent coral, are green, like sausages and candles. There are many branches. Some tongue -shaped leaflets.
The difference between the two
The characteristics of the coral
Boom corals will occur in bulk coral, which is a common deformation among succulents, that is, the top growth point is connected into one piece, which does not grow up and becomes a structure like a cockle. After the coral is dotted, it has more ornamental value than the original bachelor, and it is like a green ganoderma lucidum emerging from the ground. There is the beauty of “seeing into the side of the ridge, different from the distance, and the high and low”. The leaves of the bent coral will be removed early, leaving the raised black “scar”, which is one of its very significant features.
The characteristics of bachelor trees
The stems of the bachelor tree are thin -shaped, green when they are young, pale gray or gray when they are old, with many branches, and the discontinuous longitudinal lines formed on the surface. It feels slightly thick and super. Old branches will appear obvious longitudinal edges. The leaves are small, scattered on the branches, and stripped early, leaving an obvious black scar. The old bachelor tree can grow like a big tree, up to 6 meters, grow slowly, and vigorously.
