Pedilanthus

About

Pedilanthus, the slipper spurges, was a plant genus of the family Euphorbiaceae, now subsumed into the genus Euphorbia on the basis of phylogenic analysis in the early 2000s. The former genus is now referred to as the Pedilanthus clade or as Euphorbia sect. Crepidaria. It includes 15 species, 14 of which are restricted to Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. Only one species has a wide distribution, from the Florida to the West Indies and South America, and cultivated in all tropical regions with several cultivars.
