Hello, I was wondering if someone could give me details on an Indian plant featured in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sESIOctllik&feature=related The plant can be seen at 1:42. Thanks for any help!
Euphorbia tirucalli. Incidentally, the person making the claims in the video (who in the Youtube comment section said he would post the ID of the plant 4 months ago) responded as a comment on the link I've provided with the identification, over 4 months ago. So, that strikes me as strange. Also, given that it's a Euphorbia, I would not want to apply it to my skin -- highly irritating (and, though I haven't confirmed, asserted by the author of the blog posting to be cancer-inducing)
Thanks very much, I appreciate it. So you would not recommend anyone try this as a baldness treatment? Would you say the video is a hoax? Are there any tests we can do to see if this plant is dangerous to skin?
