Sorry Frogger but the common name "Crown of Thorns" is not very specific. It
is commonly used for a wide variety of spinescent Madagascar Euphorbia species, their hybrids and cultivars. Euphorbia milii var. splendens has red "flowers" but the hybrids and cultivars come in a wide range of colors.

I have posted a picture he http://figbug.dnsalias.org/gallery/Misc/IMG_5789 Euphorbia milii var. splendens (common name: Crown of Thorns -- sorry Cereoid) The plant appears to not be getting enough light. Try moving it to a south facing window and it should bloom. 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. |
