FRIDAY GREENS #66 - EUPHORBIA x MARTINII

Welcome to this meme active every Friday. The theme is "Friday Greens" and you can post images, art, photos where the predominant colour is GREEN!
GREEN is the colour between blue and yellow in the spectrum; coloured like grass or emeralds.
Euphorbia x martinii is a natural hybrid of Euphorbia characias and Euphorbia amygdaloides. It grows to around 90cm and like most of the genus likes a dryish soil in a sunny location. The attractive small flowers are composed of lime green bracts with wine-red nectar glands in the centre. It blooms from spring to early summer. As all spurges it produces irritating milky sap and the plants should be handled with caution.

This post is also part of the Floral Friday Fotos meme.
