Many thanks Vijayasankar ji ... *heterophylla* answers many doubts regarding
what is seen in Google images.


Many thanks for making me realize the confusing relation between *

cyathophora*Murray ... syn.
*Poinsettia cyathophora* (Murray) Klotzsch & Garcke

Euphorbia heterophylla* L. ... syn. *Poinsettia heterophylla* (L.) Klotzsch
& Garcke
