Snow On The Mountain Euphorbia Plants
Euphorbia! Such a tough, yet easy going plant. It comes in all sizes and shapes, tolerates any dirt, self-seeds, resists critters and pests, and enjoys long walks on the beach. Snow on the Mountain, native to the USA, is a sturdy little green-and-white striped wildflower dream.
Snow on the Mountain takes white flowers to the next level. Their striped leaves just blend into their blooms, and sometimes you can't tell where one stops and the other begins.
Includes three young plants, grown in 2.5" diameter pots.

Growing Info
How to Plant | Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball. Fill a little bit of the loose dirt back into the hole and tuck your plant in so the base of the stem is even with the top of the hole. Now fill in the rest of the soil around the roots, give the soft ground around the base of your new plant friend a few solid pats to compress the soil onto the roots, and a long, gentle drink of water |
Where to Plant | Find a place that gets a decent amount of sun, in well draining soil. Flowers will flop over in too much shade |
When to Plant | Plant outside in the spring, After your last frost. Avoid the heat of the day when planting — plant in the early morning, late afternoon, or by the light of the moon |
When to Expect Blooms | All summer! |
Care Instructions | Water regularly until they get established, and then give them extra water during dry spells. Pick blooms to encourage more |
Extra Credit | When your plant is about 9-12" tall you can pinch off the main growth tip to encourage a bushier plant with more blooms. Champion self-seeder |
