Euphorbia lactea variegata
"White Ghost"




     ;From India and Sri Lanka, Euphorbia lactea is a branching candelabra shaped plant to 7 feet tall. The variegated form above is aptly called "White Ghost" and a beautifull white with pink cristate form is available. The picture below is the cristate from. I got it from B&B Cactus Farm in Tucson.
     ;I got this one at Bachs 2 years ago and tried to grow it in the ground. Spring 2006 I redid the garden and pulled it out because it wasn't doing well. I tried to root some cuttings without success. The picture above is of a cutting that unfortunately rotted. Now all I have is the original stump which is putting out some new arms for me.
