I've grown E.milii indoors but it never looked beautiful like this. The flowers are perfect - hardly look real!

Normally only like the "common or garden" euphorbias - for indoor decoration. However, this is stunning. As Sarah65 says - will it work in tghis part of the world?

Well, many people already have asked me: can I grow this in my part of the world? I don't really know. I always tell them: go to your local garden centre and see what there is. Look on the tickets in the pot or ask the sales people. Rule of thumb: no nursery would sell things if you cannot grow them there now, would they? I used to go to nurseries and see lovely plants, wanting those of course. Every time it said: not frost tolerant and I had to leave it standing there. There are coastal regions where anything grows, as my region was at 32" parallel, but inland in the hills we had frost in winter so I could not grow these plants I loved so much. It pays to check it out, I've learned the hard way, lol.
