Re: Euphorbia dulcis CHAMELEON



I've lost Euphorbia dulcus "Chameleon" as well. However my loss can be
attributed to mistakenly planting it in full sun and dry soil ike its relative
E. "Wulfenii".  It lived about a year, then turned up its toes. Surprise! the
following spring, I found several volunteers springing up in the area. After
potting them up and growing on a bit, I was able to add them to a shadier spot
under an abutilon. It's the second year and they are doing well.

Conclusions:  E. dulcus "Chameleon" is more of a shade plant in my hot inland
garden.
                       They come true from seed.
                        And volunteer as well as E. "Wulfenii"
