Euphorbia polychroma
Euphorbia polychroma belongs to the Spurge Family of mainly tropical
plants. Species of Euphorbia have peculiar flowers that have no petals or
sepals but are just tiny cups holding either stamens or pistils. These
much-reduced flowers are surrounded by specialised leaves or bracts that
may be coloured and sometimes look petal-like. The species illustrated has
yellow bracts that look like flowers.
