Add item to quote to see pricing
Euphorbia misera is an impressive perennial shrub, more commonly recognized as Cliff Spurge. This Southwest US and Baja California native stands out with its gentle grey-green foliage and delightful clusters of tiny yellow flowers. Despite its potential to reach up to five feet, the Cliff Spurge typically stays comfortably around a two-foot height, making its presence known yet unobtrusive. The shrub’s sprawling growth habit further enhances its eye-catching architectural appeal, a testament to its capability to thrive in harsh, arid conditions like full sun exposure and poor, rocky soils. Its striking capacity for drought tolerance makes it an indispensable addition to desert gardens and water-conserving landscapes. However, its charm invites caution - the Cliff Spurge releases a milky sap when cut which may irritate skin and eyes, and it's toxic if ingested. This low maintenance, hardy plant brings resilience, beauty, and a touch of the unexpected to any garden. Be sure to handle Cliff Spurge with care, and let its tenacious spirit and captivating allure elevate your outdoor space.
