Description
Euphorbia 'Robbiae', commonly known as Spurge, is a herbaceous perennial valued for its gold or yellow and green flowers during spring. It typically matures 1–2 feet tall and 2–3 feet wide. Grow it in full sun to partial shade in average to occasionally dry, well-drained loamy soil. Its native range or documented parentage is North and South America, Europe, Africa and Asia.
