Euphorbia wolfii - I am forever finding new shoots in my garden - I pull them out but allow several clumps to flourish. They grow taller than me. Comments welcome :)

If I ever want some paint mixed to match a color, I'm calling you Lyn. You are so good at that. Another good example.

Excellent post Lyn.

A sort of weed on 'roids? Nice shot. Great when you need a lot of green in the background.

Ask your Congressmen and Senators why our existing wells aren't pumping more than 3 days a month? There a lot of unused capacity in existing wells.

I love Euphorbia, but I'm not sure I've seen this variety before.

I like the way you used the subtle OOBs effect. It works so well with this frame.

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"

Oh my! This is a unique specimen, Lyn. A great shot, well composed, and I love the cool greens. Great post.

Though no one can go back & make a brand new start, anyone can start from now & make a brand new ending.

What a great name - wolfii! The wolf euphorbia. Sounds like it's a wily beast too if it's popping up all over the place. It's not ugly though is it - although it is a bit reminiscent of brussels sprouts growing! I like the range of green tones and nothing else in this, it's very smart.

Such an interesting plant. I think you have photographed this one before. I love all the greens. The framing works so well with this pretty capture.
