Default Need ID help with plant.

Does anyone know the name of this plant. The owner describes it as such;

The leaves of this plant change their color to pink at this time of the year when we make her live in shade. In summer time, leaves turn white with green rims.

This plant is very common in tropical India. This plant is grown as a hedge plant because of its decorative look.

Thanks.

I believe, Tindo, it's a Euphorbia (tithymaloides) known as Devil's Backbone or Zig-zag Plant.

You might find more information if you look under the old name Pedilanthus t.

This is a really nice variegated clone.

We are often asked to ID plants. Generally I know them and I concur with this ID. However, there is a helpful free app called "Like that Plant" that I haved used with great sucess. You might enjoy it. Also, Tindomul, we are headed south today to see the Sandhill cranes. I charged the real camera but can't promise my skills are better.😆

Good luck! Hopefully they are so close you can't miss. I once saw them in someone's front yard and I was only a few yards away. Adults and young, in Florida.

I didn't know about that plant website. Thanks again.
