painted leaf

Euphorbia cyathophora

The painted leaf is a colorful plant with bright red and green leaves. It loves to soak up the sun and can often be found in gardens and sunny spots.

生息地: Urban areas

外見

The painted leaf has vibrant green leaves, but its upper leaves, called bracts, turn striking shades of red, orange, or yellow near the inconspicuous true flowers. These colorful bracts are what give the plant its 'painted' appearance, making it visually distinct from other leafy green plants.

It's closely related to the famous poinsettia, both having colorful bracts.

The plant's vibrant "flowers" are actually modified leaves, not true petals!
