Can anybody identify this plant? My brother gave it to me, neither he or I
know what it is.

Try looking under Euphorbia Crown of thorns.

Euphorbia milii var. splendens

The plant appears to not be getting enough light. Try moving it to a south
facing window and it should bloom.

Euphorbia milii var. splendens
(common name: Crown of Thorns -- sorry Cereoid)

Yep. It definitely needs light. It's a pretty easy-care plant. Let dry
out between watering, give it lots of light, and it has very pretty
little blooms ranging through cream, pink, and orange shades. Is vrey
easy to propagate from tip cuttings.

Don't get any sap on your skin, it burns some it's like poison ivy to others.

The plant was in a lot better shape before I went on holiday. I don't think
it was watered while I was away. When I came back about 75% of the leaves
had fallen off. They are starting to grow back now.

The plant is a cutting from my brothers plant. He originally bought it from
the biology department at a University. At the end of each term they sell
all their plants for a $1 each.

My brother just sold his condo, one of the subject tos on the contract was
that his crown of thorns be included in the deal. I thought that was funny.

Anyway, thanks for all the help everybody,
Roland

I had one of these that gave me little very bright orange-red flowers year
round in a window with lots of sun.
