Notes

'Kilimanjaro' snow on the mountain (Euphorbia marginata 'Kilimanjaro') is an annual for borders, cottage gardens, cut flower beds, and rock gardens. This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Green blooms open in early to late summer and again in early to late autumn. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Butterflies and bees visit it, and it tolerates drought.

Pairs well with Afternoon White cosmos, Cherry Caramel phlox, Cerise Queen yarrow, and Red fescue.
