Product Details
Weight: 10.00 kg
Botanical Name: Euphorbia milii
Common Names: Crown of Thorns, Christ Thorn, Christ Plant, Cream Crown of Thorns, Blush Crown of Thorns
📌 Product Description
Euphorbia milii ‘Cream Blush’ is a refined, pastel-toned selection of the classic Crown of Thorns. This variety produces clusters of soft cream bracts delicately flushed with blush pink, creating a subtle and elegant display.
Unlike the traditional bright red forms, this cultivar offers a softer colour palette while maintaining the same hardy, drought-tolerant nature. Its thorny, sculptural stems and glossy green foliage add structural interest, making it an excellent feature plant for sunny patios and water-wise gardens.
⚠️ Milky sap may irritate skin and eyes. Handle with care.
