| The dwarf crown-of-thorns (Euphorbia milii ``Indian'') has red flower bracts 365 days a year and the dwarf or compact Peruvian lily (Alstroemeria ``Princess lily'') flowers year-round with pink or salmon blooms. Among the most popular are poinsettias, crotons, and crown-of-thorns. The crown-of-thorns starfish made a big splash in the mid-1960s--and another in the early 1980s--when unusually large numbers of the species devastated live coral on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. |
