Euphorbia x pasteurii is a large evergreen shrub, crossed between Euphorbia stygiana and Euphorbia mellifera. Taking the best attributes from both its parents, it forms a pleasing rounded shape and has slender, dark green leaves with white mid ribs, which take on red hues in autumn. Flowers are bronze/green and sweetly scented.
Grow Euphorbia x pasteurii in well-drained soil in a Mediterranean style or gravel garden. Cut back spent flower heads in autumn. Always wear gloves when working with euphorbias. The milky sap is a skin irritant.
