Euphorbia, Milii
Scientific Name: Euphorbia Milii
Common Name: Crown of Thorns, Christ Thorn
The Euphorbiaceae family has over 5,000 species of plants that vary wildly from weeds, to shrubs or trees to ground cover, all the way over to succulents with cactus-like characteristics. The Euphorbia genus is also commonly named spurge, although some species would not necessarily be included in that name.
The Euphorbia Milii is a woody succulent that features thick green stems covered in gray or black spines. Their flowers are long-lasting and surrounded by colorful bracts, similar to a petal, in red, pink, yellow, or white.
Basic Care Notes: Well-draining soil like a cactus mix, loves indirect bright light. Water infrequently, once the top 2-3" are dry and greatly reduce watering in the winter.
