---------------------- : -
Euphorbia myrsinites, the Donkey Tail Spurge, is an attractive evergreen plant with blue foliage and an interesting architectural form when mature. Trailing stems are covered with spirals of closely set waxy, fleshy, pointed leaves that emerge from the crown. The prostrate plants spread to a radius of 30cm or more in width, but remain just a 10-15cm above the ground.
The flowers are inconspicuous, but surrounded by bright sulphur-yellow bracts and blue green foliage.
Cut off old stems to the base when the flowers start to fade to prevent reseeding if required, or leave until the seeds ripen before cutting back to the base.
