      This was the easiest one, I knew it already. Others are more tricky, I'll see what I can do about them. Posted 12 years ago

The Crown-of-Thorns

"Euphorbia milii", the crown of thorns, Christ plant, or Christ's thorn, is a species of flowering plant in the spurge family Euphorbiaceae, native to Madagascar. The species name commemorates Baron Milius, once Governor of Réunion, who introduced the species to France in 1821.
