Euphorbia milii 'Golden Orb' is a cultivar of Euphorbia milii, a species native to Madagascar where it typically grows in rocky, dry thickets. This selection is characterised by its rounded, golden-yellow bracts that surround the small central cyathia. Like other crown of thorns cultivars, it bears spiny, semi-woody stems and succulent green leaves, often persisting year-round under favourable conditions. It has been developed for ornamental use and is popular in warm climates or as a container specimen.
