Beautiful a annual very reminiscent of euphorbia's but without the sticky latex. Its blue green foliage makes a wonderful contrast to most other plants. It produces curing umbels of yellow green or chartreuse colored flowers on the tops of a single stem that branches at the tip. Very easy to grow from seed and takes very little care once established.
