More of the big (for me) Euphorbia esculenta

I was looking back at some pictures of this plant shortly after I received it (mail order) last year. It has grown significantly and is more lush and green than ever before. I'll dig those up and update this post so you can see the difference. In the meantime, here are some close ups of the central growth point (mainly so I can compare growth later this year). Definitely one of my favorite plants!
