Euphorbia corollata
Common name: Flowering Spurge
Flowering Spurge may be one of the tougher forbs that we offer as it will grow nearly anywhere as long as the ground it not wet. We love to see it used in urban and rural areas that that needs a "wilding" plant that offers landing spots for all sort of pollinators. Flowering in summer with very open panicles of white flowers that last longer than many summer flowering species. We would caution you that this species will run on you a bit if there is open ground, so those of you with limited space may want to find a way contain it. Â
