Euphorbia anoplia (anoplia meaning spineless) was first described from the Uniondale district. Thus far the original plants have not been found.
Presently the var. anoplia refers to plants from Coega. There does not seem to be evidence that these are indeed the same plants. Years ago I saw E anoplia at Karoo Botanical Garden in Worcester. Where these originated from I could not find out, but I seem to recall that the plants had thicker stems than the plants from Coega.
