The Euphorbia erythraeae variegata is a very beautiful and unique Euphorbia species. This Euphrobia has a truly stunning color combination. The plant consists of a pattern of dark green, light green, and white-green. This color combination gives the Euphorbia erythraeae variegata its beautiful appearance.

The Euphorbia erythraeae variegata has numerous small, thick, brown spines along its stem. Two spines grow per areole. In spring, the Euphorbia erythraeae variegata often begins growing again. Small, yellow-green leaves then appear on the upper part of the plant. When the plant goes dormant again in winter, these leaves often fall off.

In autumn, the Euphorbia erythraeae variegata blooms. The yellow-green flowers emerge from between the upper spikes.

Tip: Many cacti and succulents prefer variegated varieties to avoid full sun. For this species, as with Euphorbia lactea White Ghost, it's the other way around. If the plant only receives morning sun or too little light, it will produce extra chloroplasts to perform sufficient photosynthesis, making the green color more visible. Place it in full sun, however, and the light, creamy-yellow and white pattern will become much more prominent.
