Highlights
– This product includes 10+ seeds of the Euphorbia characias ssp. Wulfenii, commonly known as Mediterranean Spurge. This perennial plant is notable for its robust growth, reaching 3-4 feet in height and a similar spread of 3 feet wide.
– It flourishes in zones 7 to 10 and boasts remarkable resistance to deer, rabbits, and gophers, as well as drought and air pollution.
– The plant prefers well-draining soil conditions and exhibits a partial affinity for sun or partial sun exposure.
– Throughout the year, its blue-grey stalks maintain a visually striking appearance, especially during its blooming phase in the spring and summer.
– The narrow, linear, blue-green leaves, which can grow up to 5 inches long, are spirally arranged along the stems. Each stem culminates in a dense, bottlebrush-like inflorescence of greenish-yellow flowers during the blooming period.
– These flowers are unique in that they lack petals but have prominent, petal-like greenish-yellow bracts.
– The Mediterranean Spurge is not only a standout plant for its visual appeal but also attracts butterflies, bees, and birds, enhancing biodiversity in your garden.
– Its evergreen nature in mild climates and easy self-sowing properties make it a low-maintenance choice for gardeners. The flowers persist for months on stiff stalks, ideal for creating cut or dried floral arrangements.
– This plant performs exceptionally well in a variety of settings, including garden borders, beds, and containers, thriving in conditions where other plants might struggle.
