Glacier Blue Euphorbia is a compact evergreen perennial that grows in a mound. Its upright icy blue whorls emerge with fine creamy white margins. Inflorescences of tiny green flowers bloom from late spring into summer, attracting bees and butterflies. Best shape in full sun and dry, well-drained soils. Broken stems have a milky white sap that can cause significant skin irritation and is poisonous if ingested.
