Euphorbia amygdaloides var. robbiae
An evergreen, emerald groundcover for dry shade.
Description:
A lovely ground overing perennial that tolerates dry soil in sun or shade while displaying dark green foliage in perfect whorls and large lime green flowers. Cut back flower stems after flowering to encourage rich, thick basal growth. Tolerant of dry shade and will do well under cedars where nothing else grows! Keep an eye on it in more favourable conditions as the clump can grow quickly!
