Snow-on-the-Mountain (Euphorbia marginata)


Euphorbia marginata
Photographed September 24 with a Konica Minolta DiMAGE Z6.

Like its close relative the Poinsettia, this is a plant that makes most of its impression with brightly patterned upper leaves rather than spectacular flowers. These plants were growing on a streetside bank in Beechview.
