Plant Features
Tasmanian Tiger Leafy Spurge is prized for its variegated lightly bluish-green leaves with well-defined creamy margins. Unlike most perennial Euphorbia, the upper bracts are not yellow or chartreuse, but are cream and green with “bow-tie-like” creamy flowers displayed in the early spring. This is one of the more ‘formal’ perennial euphorbia, only due to its coloration, which is unusual, to say the least, and extraordinarily fascinating to lovers of this particular genus.
