Spurge plants love the full sun in cooler climates and appreciate some afternoon shade in hotter climates. Plant in very well-drained low moisture soil and average fertility. Mulch well and deadhead immediately after the blooms are spent. Prune when dormant. Gloves and care should be used when handling because the milky sap can be a skin irritant.
- Full Sun & Part Shade
