This video couldn’t be better timed. I have the big Wulfenei Characas and i love it. i want a couple of smaller, stockier varieties but still want that electric green flower head. So I’m off to a garden centre later today. Thinking I’ll get Black Pearl. Thank you
Did i miss the the euphorbia seguieriana niciciana ? Or dont you got one , i thought by the sum of your plants that you would have it because it also a popular variety
Thoughts on euphorbias planted under trees (dry)? I've got a spot that's a distance away from irrigation with 4 large alders. It gets the hottest late afternoon sun (washington 8b, similar to UK), to the point a nearby rhodendron has been getting burned the last 3 years. It seems like a great choice as long as I irrigate until established, my only reservation is my property is next to an old established forest and I don't want it wandering off by reseeding into that forest (you mention the ants dragging off seeds). Any of the bright green/lime green that are less prolific of spreader?
I think your best choice is Euphorbia whistleberry garnet for that situation. Although a spreader, I feel it would be a good choice, euphorbia wulfenii would be great too. Give those a go and keep me updated on the progress. Don't forget to water in well until established.
@@upatgrassybottom9859 wulfenii is the one I have my eyes on. I like to inject chartreuse and yellows into my landscape where I can since the sun likes to disappear behind rain clouds 8 months of the year! Yellow plants help with the grey!
Love the purpurea, going to try to find it!
Yes, it's a good one
Enjoying all your information 👌 l bought Purpurea this week.......ps...if this rain would ease off, I'd get it planted 😅 ☘️
That's great. Thanks for watching

E. Black pearl is great, try martinii it's fairly short
I think miners Merlot is a hybrid and amagloides is in it which is quite hardy
.
The bee looks like Andrena fulva
Thanks

I don't collect popular ones, I've been gardening a long time and tend to go for more unusual ones .
@@upatgrassybottom9859 i mean popular under euphorbia hunters
It is not more popular than palustris or miners merlot

Also try euphorbia epithymoides

Haa Malachi a meaning ?
It was named after a breeding line of greyhounds by a previous owner.
@@upatgrassybottom9859 ah ok , it looks like a Euphorbia Karl Foerster would have selected very upright
@@lXlElevatorlXl it's a great plant
Great video. I managed to sprout three E. characias var. wulfenii, not to see if they'll grow.
If they've rooted, they'll be fine.
