Description

The foliage of this lovely compact-leafed and very dwarf form of E. characias resembles grey-green felt! The unexpected brownish-red spring flowers are a spectacular change from the norm. This unique euphorbia also produces tiny plants at the stem tips.

Sowing Advice

For best results, sow immediately onto a good soil-based compost. Cover the seeds with fine grit or compost to approximately their own depth. They can be sown at any time, and germination can sometimes be quicker if kept at 15 to 20 degrees C. We sow most seeds in an unheated greenhouse and wait for natural germination, as many seeds have built-in dormancy mechanisms, often waiting for natural spring germination, hence giving them a full season of growth.
