Identifying features of the species of Euphorbia belonging
to the section Medusae
Most medusoid species are difficult to identify and most of the
times one needs to see the flowers in order to know what species
one is dealing with. Even then one can't always be sure as also
many hybrids do occur iin cultivation.
All pictures shown in this gallery are of known origin and we
are nearly 100 % sure about their identity.
