Very nice Sue(tu) Mind you I would put that little Myriostigma is a much smaller pot, to give it a better chance of surviving:cry:

Hi Sue

It's not a E.Symetrica it's a E.horrida and you should complain to the ebay person that sold you it.
I had already told him it was wrongly labeled so you have been mis-sold & should claim a refund

Thats ok Tina, I had a feeling it was a horrida as I have a smaller one, more green than this one.(see photo). I also have a symmetrica which is more the colour but definitely not the shape...:lolbt:
Phil I don't think I have a pot any smaller, think thats about the smallest...

Hi Sue
Sorry if I was a bit negative but they should be know what they are selling or have I got myself mixed up, not an ebay plant ?.
It's not a bad looking plant & you will soon have a nice clump I'm sure.

Doesn't Peyton say the red flowered type isn't Horrida it's another euphorb ??, can't remember, old timers settling in early:lolbt:

Hi Tina....I did have a look at some of the sites for Euphorbias and the red flower ones, as far as I can see, are horrida polygona. I think this new one is also the same as the flowers, though tiny, appear to be red. I have sent a message to the seller telling him to get his names right, not everyone would be as accepting as I am...and I liked it whatever it was called....:D
