Sea spurge
Euphorbia paralias
Sea spurge is a hardy coastal perennial adapted to sandy, free-draining soils and full sun exposure. Water infrequently and ensure excellent drainage, as it is sensitive to prolonged soil moisture. Handle with care, as all parts of the plant contain a toxic milky latex that can irritate skin and eyes.
