Euphorbia stellata f. crestata

The crested shape of this species shows some parts with the typical fan arrangement and is a truly difficult specimen to find, as well as loved and sought after by true connoisseurs and enthusiasts. Also known as "Medusa's head", it is a succulent plant that over time tends to form a caudex at the base. At the apex of it numerous long dark green branches sprout, from whose edges come out rigid coupled spines and several small yellow flowers.
