'''Candelilla''' ('''''Euphorbia antisyphilitica''''') is a [[shrub]]by [[spurge]] native to southwest [[Texas]] and [[Mexico]], having densely clustered, erect, essentially [[leaf]]less stems that yield the multipurpose [[Candelilla wax]]. They are thus also called "wax plant" on occasion, but this name is usually taken to refer to the unrelated [[genus]] ''[[Hoya]]''.
