We are grateful to have the opportunity to bring these 'Crown of Thorns to you from our friends in Bethlehem. When we opened the box, we gasped at their beauty yet were taken back by the sharpness of the thorns. It is hard not to hold one in your bare hands and ponder over its powerful symbolism. + ABOUT THE PLANT The botanical name for the Crown of Thorns is Euphorbia Milli. This thick steamed plant grows in the desert of Jericho and by the Dead Sea, 30 Miles from Jerusalem. This Beautiful ornamental plant which has dense thorns is said to have been used by Roman Legionaries to crown the head of Jesus. When in bloom, it has beautiful flowers that all but hide the thorns and is found in many colors. follow the links below for more information CROWN OF THORNS - SUGGESTIONS FOR USE SHOPPING CART - MORE LINKS (use back button to return to this page) |
