Was told this fella is a new cultivar! Immediately scooped it up, I love how it looks!
Sidenote, does anyone else feel like Euphorbia has too many vastly different plants in it? Like what do you mean the poinsettia, spurge, stapelia, and Euphorbia obesa are all the same genus????
Yeah euphorbia is insane in its variety but stapelia isn’t in the mix of the species! Stapelia is in apocynaceae with milkweed and oleander.
Euphorbias are weird – add euphorbia pachypoeides that mimics Pachypodiums, obesa that looks like a round small cactus, caudex euphorbias like stellata and francoisii and then euphorbia canariensis and ingens that look like tall columnar cacti. Croton? Euphorbiaceae as well!
I’ve been collecting euphorbia species for many years and found this Pink one for the first time last year in eastern Canada! It’s such a radiant shade of pink!

I’m in Naples, Florida at the Ritz Carlton. And the landscape I just noticed today is pink, red and white poinsettias.
Just like your pink. I have never seen the pink before they’re beautiful.
