The Euphorbia flanaganii Crested form, also known as the "Medusa's Head" plant, is a stunning and unique succulent, perfect for collectors and enthusiasts alike. Native to South Africa, this exotic plant features a fascinating crested growth pattern that resembles intricate coral formations, making it a standout addition to any succulent garden. The crested form of Euphorbia flanaganii is characterized by its dense clusters of serpentine stems that spread out in a spiral pattern, resembling the mythical Medusa’s hair. Unlike its normal form, which grows flat, this crested variety creates striking, wavy ridges, adding depth and texture to your collection.
This low-maintenance plant thrives in bright, indirect sunlight and prefers well-draining soil, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor cultivation. Euphorbia flanaganii is also drought-tolerant, requiring minimal watering, which makes it a great choice for those new to succulent care or those with a busy lifestyle. When grown in the right conditions, this plant can produce tiny, delicate yellow flowers, adding a pop of color to its otherwise green appearance.
