Euphorbia aff. caput-medusae 101129-0397

Botanic Gardens, Melbourne

 

A mass planting of these had a label "Euphorbia caput-medusae (large leaf)". I am dubious that this and the yellow-bracted plant in my adjacent shot can both be E. caput-medusae, though I suppose it's possible if the species is highly polymorphic in the wild.

 

But a Flickr search on the species returns a large number of photos, which seem to be divided between these 2 forms, with nothing intermediate.
