Pedilanthus tithymaloides 'Nanus' --Green Devil's Backbone--
Sometimes called centipede euphorbia because of its jointed stem and leggy leaves. Neat zigzagging pattern makes this a fun graphic contrast as a houseplant! Tiny red blossoms in spring attract hummingbirds. Likes sun, infrequent soak watering, and trimming to stay compact.
