Euphorbia Kilimanjaro, commonly known by several names: Mountain Spurge, Snow On The Mountain, Euphorbia variegata and Mountain Snow, is a gorgeous, annual, bushy shrub that produces eye catching, white and pale green, variegated clusters with tiny flower blossom centers on upward facing stems. An absolute favorite of floral creatives and cut flower gardeners alike! This showy, 24" to 30" inch shrub fits into most every garden style and is a drought tolerant, easy keeper that thrives in the high heat and humidity of summer. Prefers well drained soils and a sunny location. In the hottest regions, afternoon shade is recommended. This variety freely self sows and will typically return again in the same spot next year if left after the first frost. NOTE: Plants have escaped gardens in many parts of the U.S. and may be considered invasive in some areas. Packet: 50 seeds.
Caution: The whitish milky sap of this plant is a toxic skin irritant and especially harmful to eyes. Toxicity varies among varieties, but consider all to be dangerous. Please exercise extreme caution when handling, trimming, or composting. Purchasers accept and assume all liability for proper handling of this item.
