We need pictures Jamie. No such name in current usage, maybe Robert has an idea.

Have you looked closely at the "buds" most euphorbia flowers are extremely small and can fool you.

Looks like E. greenwayi, which has really cool cyathia!

Thanks for the confirmation. Someone told me that if you get the white sap in your eyes you will go blind. Is that true? Also, does anyone have pictures of their's blooming?
