Euphorbia leuconeura
The Madagascar Jewel is grown as a houseplant in some cases. Unlike many succulents, E. leuconeura is less susceptible to overwatering issues. It tends to be relatively easy to care for providing it receives ample sunlight and is free from drafts. When damaged the plant secretes a white fluid which is toxic, causes severe skin irritation and may be a tumor promoting agent. Care should be taken to use gloves when the plant is handled.Euphorbia leuconeura is a species of plant in the Euphorbiaceae family. It is endemic to Madagascar. Its natural habitat is rocky areas.
