EUPHORBIACEAE FORTNIGHT:: Euphorbia sp. 5 for id from Cactus Garden PanchkulaNS-26 : Attachments (4). 3 posts by 3 authors.
Perhaps I was waiting for this fortnight to post these pics, these were shot from Cactus garden Panchkula..one more Euphorbia for id please..

I would suggest E. caducifolia, although … would give ultimate verdict


I am not able to identify this species. It does not match any Indian species. It is probably an introduced exotic plant.


E. caducifolia I hope, as suggested earlier
