Crown of Thorns

Bright, bold, and resilient, the Crown of Thorns is a striking succulent shrub celebrated for its colorful blooms and thorny stems. Native to Madagascar, this tough beauty produces cheerful clusters of pink, red, yellow, or white flowers almost year-round when kept in bright light. Its thick, spiny stems and fleshy leaves help it conserve water, making it extremely drought-tolerant and perfect for sunny indoor spaces, or patios.
