This species is a small tree with a short trunk and a wide, almost round crown with branches that carry the leaves in tufts at the tips. Thin, grey-green leaves make a pleasant backdrop for the chartreuse flowers & the yellow to red seed pods that follow! Easily grown in free-draining dryish soil, it will attain 3-6’ in height & about as much width, depending on the culture & climate in which it develops. With age & proper care, it becomes almost tree like, with a symmetrical branching structure & grayish bark. The sap of this plant can be TOXIC to varying degrees. Be sure to protect your eyes, skin & NEVER ingest!
