Flowering Spurge is a long-blooming perennial with attractive white flowers that provide a good "filler" in dry, sunny flowerbeds. It tolerates most soil types as long as there is good drainage. The long, woody taproot gives it excellent drought tolerance.
 
A number of pollinating insects are attracted to the flowers, and birds often consume the seeds. The stems and foliage contain a toxic latex that is unappetizing to deer and rabbits. This latex can also cause skin irritation in some people, but is not a problem if you don't pick the flowers.
