Euphorbia characias subsp. wulfenii - 50cm high stems clothed with whorls of fleshy, matt grey-green leaves. In spring, the plants are topped with broad cylindrical heads of intense chartreuse-green flowers with pale brown 'eyes'.
The plant forms a natural rounded shape, and brings low maintenance structure, colour and texture offering almost endless contrast possibilities. As with all Euphorbias, the milky sap is irritating to the skin, so gloves and eye protection should be worn when working with it. The stems should be cut down close to ground level after flowering.

Euphorbia characias originates from the Mediterranean and Portugal, where it is found on dry rocky slopes and scrub land. Very tolerant of drought, hardy to minus 15°C and can resist high salinity, so suited to a maritime garden. Much loved by bees and wildlife here in the Algarve.
