Euphorbia trigona 'Variegata' - 3 plants/pot

Euphorbia trigona 'Variegata' is a spectacular succulent, prized for its upright, ridged stems with a variegated pattern in shades of green, cream, yellowish-white, and sometimes pale pink. It has an architectural growth habit and can become a tall, highly decorative plant over time, suitable for bright interiors and succulent collections.

As it matures, the plant develops lateral branches and takes on the appearance of a miniature succulent tree. The variegation differs from one stem to another and may become more pronounced in good light.
