Just wondered if anyone can suggest a name for this Euphorbia. I found a tray of them in Holland at a secondary wholesaler who, not surprisingly, didn't have a name for them. All I know is that they were grown from seed in Italy at a nursery that grows reasonably collectable plants, they're branching at a very small size, no pattern on the stem, distinctive leaf scars, and just coming into leaf, currently in 5cm pots. I've grown most Euphorbias over the years but, although I can rule out plenty of names, I don't think I've grown this before. Any suggestions please.
Stuart

Hi Stuart,
Can't put a specific name to it but I would have thought it was a Monadenium. I know that they are all in one ginormous genus now, but I still separate them out.

Re: Euphorbia name please
Maybe euphorbia royleana, I'd be interested in two or another similar is E. nivula ( sp might be wrong on this one)
You could post a pict on the euphorbia facebook site or do you know Rikus to email him
