    Can someone help me identify this small tree? I was told at a nursery that it might be some kind of Euphorbia. Attached are two pictures.

    Thanks,
    Steve

    Looks like Polyscias fruticosa to me, but I've never seen one bloom. Neat!

    Ditto to Jatropha. This is closely related to Euphorbia, so your nursery wasn't far out.
