Really? My polychroma has been in the same spot for over a decade, spreading 
gently, nary a seedling errant. My Euphorbia myrsinites, on the other hand, 
reseeds lavishly in the manner you describe, popping up in gravel, stone 
walls, driveway, dozens of yards away. But I have no complaints. It is 
perhaps my favorite garden perennial. I let it grow in many of the spots it 
chooses and easily rogue it out where it doesn't belong.
