Crown of Thorns
Genus: Euphorbia.
Species: Euphorbia milii.
I saw these sweet little plants (C of T) in a market in Bruge 2 yrs ago & was so taken with their mass of tiny sweet flowers that I bought 2 red & a white one.
They have sat on my sunny kitchen window ever since & have been flowering the whole 2 yrs. Time to repot now.
