Euphorbia Griffithii 'Fireglow' (Euphorbia griffithii (Spurge))

This plant was huge last year, not as good this year, only a couple of flowers, hopefully better next year.

Wondered if it was the cold weather Amy, thats a relief would hate to loose it :-)
The Zea Mays grows to around 4ft Amy, has the foliage got any colour yet?remember mine didn't until they'd been planted out a bit then changed to pink green and cream stripes, loved it, not edible though, one I forgot to sow this year.

My Euphorbias are not great this year either. Don't think they liked the snow on them much.

Hi Sid, mine arent either. That Winter had took its toll.

Very true, unlike some I've lost: bottle brush, passion flower, rosemary, grrrrr

What a shame Dawn, think my passion flower may be dead too not a sign of a leaf but the stem is green when I scrape it, so may give it a bit longer, also a lovely jasmine that was in a huge pot growing round the garage, shame as it was given to us as a moving in present by Alf, Robs cousin who designed our house :-(

What a shame Kathy, its so annoying. I've cut my passion flower right down and i keep watering it in the hope it will shoot from the bottom. I live in hope, for yours too.
