| and a lovely filler for container groupings it is! it reminds me of baby's breath in a floral arrangement. the sheer number of plants in the euphorbia family is staggering. |

| It is a super cool plant. Our nursery started growing them last year. If only it was winter hardy here *sigh* |

| I'm just glad to have it during the growing season! I have it in blistering sun and it just laughs at it. |

It's superb for a myriad of uses and is very undemanding. |

| Mine developed some quasi- woody stems, so I potted up some cuttings today to see what happens. Many euphorbias root easily. Soon I will trim the upper growth and roots of the others and pot them up to try to get them thru the winter. They are EXPENSIVE. $5 for a 4 inch pot. This plant is absolutely wonderful with purple angelonia. I backed some of them with red caladiums, too. It's the most exciting container plant to come along in a good while. |

| I love it too, I did a container this year with it along with some pink verbena and a taller species of Euphorbia, that container has looked fabulous all summer (unlike the pre-planted hanging basket I bought with petunias, calibrachoa, and a few other things which has just gotten rattier and rattier as time went by!) I'm at work right now but if I think of it tonight I'll post a picture. |
