Euphorbia poissonii 'Variegata' is such an attractive succulent, with its green to silvery gray cylindrical branches topped with variegated green and yellow leaves during the growing season. Flowers are yellow green with red stamens. This particular euphorbia prefers light shade. Likes regular watering during active growth season, decrease water in winter but do not allow soil to completely dry out. Euphorbia sap is mildly toxic so should be kept away from children and pets. Some people are more sensitive than others, so we suggest wearing gloves when handling/pruning.
