    Photo is not clear but might be another Euphorbiaceae.

    Do you think it might be Croton monanthogynus?

    It's not very convincing with those shiny green stems. And is that a thickened stem at the top? Can we see the whole plant, the leaf arrangement, maybe closeup of the flowers?

    Does anyone think that it might be Euphorbia heterophylla L. ?
    Thanks for replying. The pictures are not very good, but it is an upright plant not prostrate. Most of them are about a foot to a foot and a half tall and they don't spread out.

    Too different. I guess, E. graminea would fit more.
