Euphorbia robbiae (Spurge)
|
|
Euphorbia robbiae is a first class plant for dry shade under trees. In early spring the attractive lime green flower heads make a fine show when little else is flowering. They contract especially well with blue bells, forget-me-nots and brunneras at this time. The dark green leaves provide a tough evergreen groundcover throughout the year.
Any well drained soil will do, although a moisture retentive one rich in organic matter will produce more lush growth. The plant will flourish in dry and shady conditions, as well as in the sun.
