Euphobia


Euphobia (euphobia)

12 Aug 2010. Fell in love with these pretty leaves and bought it last year, but I was deeply disappointed to see the flowers this spring!! :(

Keep reading about euphorbias and so bought one at a plant fair yesterday. No idea what to expect Tommymoo, however yours looks very healthy - what are the flowers meant to be like?

Mine was like this:

I didn't know anything about this plant when I bought it; even the name! It looked fragile (now I know it's hardy) so I covered it with dome thing made of plastic in winter (silly me!). When I remove the dome in spring, it had THE flowers! I couldn't believe my eyes! But as they say, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" :o) Hope you like yours :D
