Euphorbia

looks very pretty alright Neena

It is quite low growing Eileen I hope someone can identify it for me!

No expert but, with those purple leaves, could possibly be Euphorbia amygdaloides "purpurea" (but don't take MY word for it). :-)

Oh I think I might David! thanks I'll look it up and see whether it is a spreader :o)

Thanks for liking Carol :o)

As said, no expert, just beginning to like Euphorbias more, the one I mentioned above does spread via undeground "runners". Do let us know if you find out. :-))

I really like Euphorbias David I have some tall Lime green ones which spread like mad and a dark red leaved one that doesn't! I don't know their type either!! On the terrace i have a euph.. myrsinites which is a weird low growing one.
In my flower encyclopedia it doesn't give the height for "purpurea" just that it is groundcover so it sounds right, typically no illustration of the one i'm looking for :o)

Thanks for liking Motinot :o)
