Euphorbia lactea. Euphorbia lactea, Haw. (E. havanensis, Hort., at least in part). Fig. 1445. Similar to E. antiquorum, but with a white-marbled area running through the middle of each face of the branches. E. Indies.—One of the most common succulent euphorbias in cult., of fine candelabra form, and making rapid growth. The euphorbias grown for hedges in Fla., W. Indies, etc., are chiefly this species, though some may be E. antiquorum. It is often confused with E. Hermentiana. Cristate forms are in the trade as E. lactea monstrosa and E. havanensis cristata, though these should perhaps be referred to E. antiquorum.
