Stunning red Euphorbia francoisii 'Generation 2' well established in a 2-inch pot.

 

Euphorbia francoisii, native to Madagascar, is one of the most striking of the island's succulent Euphorbs. This caudiciform geophyte features sinuously growing thick branches and vibrant, lanceolate leaves that can display a stunning mix of green, pink, and red hues. The foliage becomes more colorful with age and exposure to bright light. Over time, the plant develops a small underground caudex that can be raised above the soil for added visual interest.

Euphorbia Genus

The Euphorbia genus, belonging to the Euphorbiaceae family, encompasses over 2,100 species, making it one of the most diverse groups of flowering plants. This genus includes a wide range of plant forms, from tiny annuals to towering trees, with many species displaying succulent characteristics that resemble cacti.

The flowers of Euphorbia are unique, clustered into a specialized inflorescence called a cyathium, a feature exclusive to this genus. Euphorbias thrive in various environments, with succulent species particularly abundant in southern and eastern Africa, Madagascar, and tropical regions of Asia and the Americas.
