Euphorbia Flanaganii Crested Form

Euphorbia flanaganii ‘Crested Form’ – Rare Botanical Sculpture | Collector Euphorbia

Also known as: Crested Medusa’s Head, Crested Christ Plant

Transform your plant collection into a living art exhibit with the extraordinary Euphorbia flanaganii ‘Crested Form’. This rare and highly sought-after mutation elevates the classic Medusa’s Head euphorbia into something truly surreal. Instead of radiating snake-like stems, the crested form develops dramatic, fan-shaped folds—rippling, coral-like waves that resemble sculpted stone or abstract desert art.

Each specimen grows with its own unique pattern, ensuring no two plants are ever alike. Compact, slow-growing, and endlessly fascinating, this euphorbia is prized by collectors for its sculptural presence and striking visual impact.
