Euphorbia inermis f. mostruosa

Euphorbia inermis f. monster is a very particular plant, which is highly sought after by green collectors for its strange shapes (for this reason the denomination of 'monster'), atypical for the normal form. In the classic specimen, it is a medium-large succulent, with extremely slow growth. Numerous serpentine, cylindrical and tapered ramifications emerge from the caudiciform central stem, similar to the hair of Medusa, hence the name "Medusa Head". Its stems are entirely covered with small protuberances with white dots, caused by the fall of the leaves, which stand out against the green color of the stem. Its flowering occurs in spring-summer, when at the apex of the stems many small creamy white flowers bloom.
