_{Crown of Christ.}

To all Steemians ♨️, I send you a very special greeting. Thanking @steemit.contest and the Steemit Contest Community, for this wonderful initiative.

Plant:	Crown of Christ
The appearance of this flower is associated with the crown that Jesus wore during the crucifixion. Some people think that the species used it to create this terrible crown.
	The Corona de Cristo plant or Euphorbia Milii is native to the large island of Madagascar, but you can find it in various tropical areas.
Like other Euphorbias, Euphorbia Milii has a very irritating and abrasive milky juice.
	It is very toxic to domestic animals such as horses, sheep, cats and dogs.
For humans it is slightly toxic and only acts as an irritant.
	Its flowers are very striking and vary in different colors such as red, yellow and white in which it brings its poison.
Its flowering period covers the whole year, in addition they are also preserved in different colors. The most common are yellow, blue and in this case red.
	It is used as an ornamental garden plant for its showy appearance and flowering. This plant requires little care, but it does need heat and good drainage.
The crown of Christ is a medicinal plant. The latex of this plant is used to treat diarrhea, intestinal discomfort, stomach pain and dizziness.
