‘Mint Crème’ is a captivating form of Euphorbia trigona, admired for its pastel tones and architectural structure. Its upright stems are a cool minty green, streaked with creamy variegation that appears almost brushed across the ridges and edges. Young growth often emerges in brighter lime shades before settling into softer tones, giving the plant a layered, artistic look. Despite its delicate color palette, the structure remains bold and sculptural.
This plant brings a modern, almost futuristic aesthetic to interiors and greenhouse displays. Its angular form and defined ridges make it perfect for contemporary pots, decorative corners, or grouped alongside darker or solid green succulents for contrast. It remains compact and upright, making it ideal for desks, windowsills, plant walls, or curated retail displays.
As a Euphorbia, it prefers bright indirect to direct sunlight and well-draining soil. Water should be minimal — allowing the soil to fully dry between watering. Overwatering is its biggest enemy. It tolerates dry air well and doesn’t require humidity, making it a low-maintenance favorite for collectors, beginners, or those with busy schedules. Like all Euphorbias, it contains sap inside that should be handled responsibly.
Over time, ‘Mint Crème’ will grow taller and may branch, forming a striking columnar silhouette. Each new segment adds more contrast and definition to the variegation pattern. With its sculpted form and pastel coloring, Euphorbia trigona ‘Mint Crème’ is as much an art piece as it is a plant — subtle, modern, and unforgettable.
