Euphorbia mammillarias 'Variegata' is a highly ornamental form of Indian corn cob euphorbia. The unusual succulent develops into a dense mound of club-shaped creamy white and frosty green stems， with a splash of emerald green. The stems resemble cobs of corn with toothpick-style spikes (peduncles， or dried flower stalks). Each stem is heavy ribbed， up to 17， with these ribs being loaded with kernel-resembling tubercles. The plant branches freely and laterally， contributing to its density and beckoning one's imagination as， say， a colony of fanciful obelisks or the appendages of a mysterious creature from the fantastical world of a children's story. Pretty much any part of the plant - the stems， spikes， or the ephemeral variegated leaves - can take on a beautiful rose pink in cool temps or bright light. Small yellow flowers， called cyathia， appear at the tips of the stems during spring to Summer. Your plant will arrive fully rooted and ready to display， accompanied by a 5 in. concrete container. If placing outside， we recommend gradually acclimating your new euphorbia to direct Sunlight. Inside， place the plant near your Sunniest window for optimal color and form. If you live where frost is not a concern， you can plant in the garden， preferably in spring or early fall to avoid trying to establish during Summer heat or winter chill. Water in morning during hot weather for best appearance. Avoid white sap from interior of plant; wash well with soap and water.
