Euphorbia heterospina f. crestata

The crested shape of this succulent presents in some of its parts the typical compact fan arrangement, which makes each specimen absolutely unique, never identical to another and for this reason much appreciated by collectors. In its normal form it is a succulent shrub plant characterized by an erect stem which, with time and optimal conditions, can grow abundantly and reach up to three meters in height! The stem, on the notes of a bright light green, can have three or five ribs, pleasantly adorned by numerous stiff and forked brownish spines.
