Euphorbia lactea f. cristata 'White Ghost' Grafted Succulent Plant - Cacti & Succulents. Although the lactea species looks like a cactus it is actually a succulent.

It is worth noting that, under favourable conditions, the entire branches can take on a beautiful pink-red colouring. The Euphorbia lactea f. cristata 'White Ghost' is available grafted. The rootstock is Euphorbia neriifolia or Euphorbia canariensis.
