    Just a stunning plant,I've had one in every garden I've had for the past 16 years.
    The smell is amazing!!!
    And grow perfectly well in cornwall
    Yes the sap is toxic,it reacts to sunlight,I've kept these plants for years,you just need to be careful and wear gloves when pruning.

    Very timely! My euphorbias are in full bloom and i had just been starting to think about how i should prune them in a few more weeks when they get tatty.

    Sir, in your “Shady Garden” video at 4:55 you showed a slow growing Yew? I was wondering if you can provide the name. Thanks for your time.

      All yews are slow growing. I have the golden and green upright yews and also common yew as a hedge. Yews are easy to grow but will not tolerate bad drainage.

    Interesting you use them as a shade plant - most places list them as requiring full sun.

      I realised Euphorbia wulfenii does really well in dry shade when I saw self sown seedlings of it growing there, even where little soil was available.

      Are they usually self seeders?

    In California that would not be called dry shade, but rather part shade,… and a whole lot more sunny time, not much overcast/cloudy time, with occasional exceptions. Astelius of this species is native to the Chatham islands, which average 30" of rainfall per year,…. fairly moist situation relative to relatively 'dry' mediterranean lowland climates, not counting high enough mountain portions which can get more rainfall,… and stay moister longer especially on slopes facing away from the sun.
