Synonym(s) Euphorbia variegata Common name snow on the mountain Family euphorbiaceae Life cycle annual Flowers white (summer) Size 18-24" Light sun-part shade Cultural notes drought-tolerant From seed germinate at warm room temperature detailed seed-starting info below Bushy annual grown for its variegated foliage. Somehow I had a smaller plant in mind when I planted our seedlings up along our front walk at front of border. They grew a bit unwieldy, so next year they'll go further back. The white margins get wider as the season progresses - the photo at right was taken about a week later than the one at top. As with all euphorbias, the milky sap can cause allergic reactions in some people.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following area: front perennial border
