Euphorbia splendens
The Spurge or Euphorbiaceae family claims the "Crown of thorns" as a member. A native of Western Madagascar, this spiny shrub has blooms of salmon-red which form in the spring.
The Wheaton College greenhouses were built in the mid 1960's through a grant by the Esso Education Foundation. This site is a log of notable changes in the plants in these greenhouses.
