Crown of Thorns 'Peppermint Candy' (Euphorbia milii)

‘Peppermint Candy’ brings beautiful white and green leaf variegation and bright red, everblooming flowers to any sunny windowsill. Like other euphorbias, it is loved for its ability to tolerate dryness and neglect. It flowers throughout the year and, unlike some of the green forms, 'Peppermint Candy’ has a compact branching habit. Variegated euphorbias tend to be slow growers, which lends itself nicely to limited space. Water when the soil is dry and give plenty of direct sunlight to bring out its full glory. This rare Crown of Thorns plant is not often found in the trade.
