These little things have appeared everywhere over the last month! The are only about 12 inches off the ground and have appeared next to the walls next to some of the Ivy

Is that Pachysandra ??
A good ground cover plant, especially in shadey areas.

Where is everyone else tonight, lol :-))
I hope someone else can help too :-)))

I thought it was a form of Euphorbia, Louise.

Thank you again - particularly you Louise for your tireless comments :) - it is so helpful to know what I have, now I can look up how to look after them :)

Be careful with the euphorbias, Numbaten....they can cause skin irritation if you get the white sap from the stems on your skin....wear gardening gloves...am I right with this one, Andrewr?? Or am I mixing it up with something else???

Bscott - you are right. All euphorbias exude the white sap from broken stems
