A tall-growing herbaceous spurge, Euphorbia donii has narrow, arching leaves with a silvery midrib. Lime-green flowers appear from July to the first frosts. It's the perfect foil for bold colours such as reds and purples, both in the border and the vase.

Grow Euphorbia donii in moist but well-drained soil in full sun. Remove faded flowers after blooming. Always wear gloves when working with spurges as the milky sap is a skin irritant and can damage your eyes.
