Euphorbia lactea 'White Ghost' – Rare Variegated Euphorbia with Ghostly Stems

Euphorbia lactea 'White Ghost' (also traded as 'Grey Ghost') is one of the most iconic cultivars in the genus. Unlike the green form, this selection is almost completely devoid of chlorophyll, giving its triangular stems a creamy white to silvery-grey appearance. Arranged in dense candelabra form, the stems can eventually exceed 3 metres in height under ideal conditions, creating a sculptural silhouette that hardly resembles a living plant. Slow but steady, it adapts well to indoor culture and is more resilient on its own roots than often assumed.

What Makes Euphorbia lactea 'White Ghost' Unique

  • Coloration: Nearly chlorophyll-free stems with creamy white, grey, and pale green marbling.
  • Growth Habit: Upright triangular branches forming candelabra-like clusters.
  • Size Potential: Can surpass 3 m in height in warm climates; more compact in pots indoors.
  • Collector Appeal: Rare, architectural form that looks more like sculpture than a plant.

Natural Background of Euphorbia lactea

The species Euphorbia lactea is native to tropical Asia, particularly India and Sri Lanka, where it grows in arid scrub and dry forests. The 'White Ghost' cultivar originated in cultivation and does not occur naturally in the wild. Its variegation results from a lack of chlorophyll, making it slower growing and more light-sensitive than the standard green form.

Care Tips for Euphorbia lactea 'White Ghost'

  • Light: Requires very bright light; acclimate gradually to avoid sunburn on pale stems.
  • Watering: Follow a “soak and dry” method; allow soil to dry completely before watering again.
  • Soil: Use a fast-draining mineral substrate with pumice, lava, or sand.
  • Temperature: Warm-growing; keep above 15 °C and protect from frost.
  • Fertilizer: Apply diluted cactus or succulent feed during active growth.
  • Containers: Heavy pots help stabilize tall plants; ensure excellent drainage.

Points to Keep in Mind

  • Growth Rate: Slower than green E. lactea due to reduced chlorophyll.
  • Pests: Occasionally mealybugs or scale; inspect stems regularly.
  • Toxicity: Like all Euphorbia, the latex sap is toxic and irritant; wear gloves when handling.

Why Collectors Prize Euphorbia lactea 'White Ghost'

The cultivar’s stark, ghostly tones and unusual architectural form set it apart from other Euphorbia. Its sculptural silhouette enhances minimalist interiors, desert-style plantings, and collector greenhouses. Despite its delicate look, it is surprisingly hardy when grown on its own roots, requiring little more than bright light and restraint with watering.

Etymology

The genus name Euphorbia is believed to honor Euphorbus, physician to King Juba II of Mauretania in the 1st century BCE, who was noted for using succulent plants medicinally. The cultivar epithet 'White Ghost' refers to its spectral pale coloration.

Great quality for the price.
Size: Large, Color: Black
All I have to say about this suit is WOW! I lost a good chunk of weight and needed a new suit for an event. Given the price I gave this a shot, and I am really impressed with the quality for the cost. The size is perfect, and the pants are comfortable with an internal elastic that looks and feels nice. The design makes it so the pants don’t slip down with nylon and silk shirts. Looks just as good (if not better) than suits in the $300 price range. I can’t speak for the other colors, but the black suit is exactly what I needed. Let’s see how long the suit lasts!

Amazing suit for the price
Size: Large, Color: Black
So I didn't really need a suit for anything. But I've been wanting one just in case. As such, I wasn't willing to spend a lot. Yet I still wanted to look good when I wore it. This suit is amazing. I honestly would fit between a medium and a large, and with my current trend down in weight, I may buy an additional in medium(I mean, for under $100, why not?). While my shoulders have always been a little wide for what fits my waist, the large seems to accommodate even more than I need. I worry if the medium will be too tight, but that's for another day. The pants are a little long, to be expected considering I generally wear 30' pants. Easy to hem. The vest seemed a little loose, until I found the adjustment in the back. Now it is perfect. I may still need to go to a tailor for a more custom fit, but for the price it can't be beat. And I of course haven't tied a tie since I was 16, so time to relearn that. As far as quality goes, the fabric and stitching all appear to be excellent. I went with the black, as I don't particularly look great in gray, and navy out here seems more suited for church than anything else. The quality of black is excellent. The quality of the pants is good, but I will still be favoring my dress pants that already fit well. I especially love the angle of the beast cut(whatever it is called). Whether I choose the vest or not, the black contrast with all of my dress shirts is fantastic. I will include photos sometime when I'm not too self-conscious about taking selfies.

Really amazing suit that looks like a million bucks!
Size: Large, Color: Black
This is the second suit we bought by Lupurty. The first was dark navy and fit so well and looked so good that we got one in black for our son’s wedding!
