Euphorbia tannensis var. finlaysonii is a variety of desert herb native to Australia.
It grows as an erect shrub, usually up to a metre in height, but sometimes up to 1.5 metres, with green or yellow flowers. From a distance it may appear leafless. It is distinguished from the other variety of E. tannensis subsp. eremophila, E. tannensis var. eremophila, by its lobed involucral glands.[1]
