Plant of the Week - Euphorbia sp. (Euphorbia)
While nearing the tail end of their main blooming period, euphorbias have delighted us with their stunning blossoms for the last couple of months. This is one of the most versatile plants in the garden, with varieties ranging in size, color and habit to suit many applications. A drought tolerant, low maintenance, deer resistant and tolerant of varying light conditions, the euphorbia is near the top of my list for a must have in our northern California gardens. One of my newer favorites is 'Tasmanian Tiger', a 3 to 4' shrub with verigated cream and sage leaves with white flowering bracts. Its sure to brighten up any corner of the yard.
