18–24″ tall and 2–3 feet wide
Plant Highlights:
Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance — ideal for xeriscaping and modern desert gardens.
Unique blue-gray foliage provides striking contrast year-round.
Chartreuse-yellow flower clusters bloom in late winter to early spring, offering early-season color.
Deters gophers and other burrowing animals — hence the name; emits a milky sap when cut that can repel pests.
Excellent in rock gardens, containers, or slopes with good drainage.
Deer and rabbit resistant (**Note: As with all Euphorbias, the sap can be irritating to skin and eyes — wear gloves when pruning)
