Diohio's Garden
Snow-on-the-Mountain
Genus: Euphorbia.
Species: Euphorbia marginata.
This beautiful wildflower just showed up in my yard one year and reseeds itself every year now. It's a native annual. ***The juice of this plant is TOXIC and can cause redness, swelling and blisterinig of the skin on contact. A story is told that the sap is such an irritant that it was once used in Texas for branding cattle. Bees that visit the flowers often produce poisonous honey.
