Euphorbia characias wulfenii |

Evergreen Spurge |
Broad clusters of yellow flowers grow from this evergreen perennial. Its upright stems form a 4' tall dome-shaped bush. Crowded all along the stems are narrow, blue-green leaves. It is fairly tolerant to droughts. In the late winter and early spring, its clustered flowers make dense, round to cylindrical masses. Until the seeds ripen, the color holds with only slight fading. At that point, the stalks should be cut out at the base.

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.
