The Cutting Garden

Growing Euphorbia Fulgens

16 years ago

Hi folks, do any of you grow this plant. I fell in love with one that I saw in a floral book with cascading branches and scarlet flowers. Any ideas as to how to grow it and if it is a worthy addition? Thanks as always. Kat

Kat - look what I found!

I was looking at the references in the Calif. Cutflower Grower Commissions website and found this new site (or new to me). I think its a great site for our customers, especially wedding customers who don't know flowers...yeah!

Anyway, looks like this might work for you...may be too cold where I am...
