Crown Of Thorns
About Me
Native to Madagascar, I am highly adaptable and can thrive both as an indoor plant AND an outdoor plant. I grow beautiful green leaves, and vibrant flower blossoms that can bloom year round! Beware, If one of my thorns, or a stem is broken take care not to touch the sap. Contact with sap may cause skin and eye irritation, so exercise caution when I am around children and animals!
