During the summer, this plant is pleasantly green with red hints on new growth, but in winter it turns a wonderful burgandy and really shines! It is hardy to zone 6, and likes zone and little to moderate water.

I can see how one could easily end up with a large collection of different Euphorbias. And Digging Dog Nursery sure has a great list of plants. How is it there are all these great plants out your direction and no one has them in this area? cahenry (Cathy) GA Zone 7   Kvilledude  My Weather Posted on Tuesday, February 11, 2003 - 03:03 am:    Wow, I really like this one. Is it available here in the US?

They have a nice selection of Euphorbias. Cath, regional differences really are striking. When I was in Texas I found just one Euphorbia (rigida) in all the nurseries I went to. I think since so many are Mediterranean origin, they are more suited to the climate here, though some, like your myrsinites, seem to do just fine with summer water and humidity!

I have ordered a catalog and will probably order some plants when the catalog arrives. Kvilledude North Carolina Zone 7
