Ready to plant

Euphorbia ceratocarpa is an evergreen shrub native to Sicily. It is a densely and vigorously growing plant with a rounded habit. The foliage is elongated and light green. From April onwards, it produces graceful, long-lasting flowers of a beautiful bright yellow colour.

Euphorbia inflorescences have such a distinctive shape that they are known by a specific name (cyathium or cyathia). Although a cyathium may look like a single flower, it is actually composed of a cup enclosing a central female flower, surrounded by many groups of male flowers.

The inflorescences of spurges have such a distinctive morphology that they are given a specific name:cyathium (or cyathus). Although a cyathium looks like a single flower, it is actually composed of a cup enclosing a single female flower in the centre, surrounded by many groups of male flowers.

Euphorbia ceratocarpa thrives in poor or sandy soils, provided they are well-drained.

Caution: like all spurges, Euphorbia rigida also contains a white sap (known as "latex") that is highly irritating to mucous membranes and can cause severe burns if it comes into contact with the eyes. This substance flows out when part of the plant is cut, so we strongly recommend handling the plant with great care and always wearing gloves and protective glasses when carrying out maintenance. For the same reason, it is strongly advised not to plant spurges near areas frequented by children.

From April onwards, there is a graceful and long-lasting bloom of a beautiful bright yellow color; the flower heads, called cays, have a peculiar morphology.

Loves full sun and does not fear poor or sandy soils, provided they are well drained. It is hardy down to around -10°C. The sap (latex) is highly irritating: always handle with gloves and protective goggles.

WHAT MAKES OUR PLANTS DIFFERENT

Long anti-spiraling vases

A traditional lawn is a fragile monoculture: it drinks thousands of liters of water every summer, needs mowing every week, and turns yellow as soon as you neglect it. An alternative lawn turns this logic on its head: instead of grasses, we use Mediterranean groundcovers selected in our nursery—low, dense, and hardy plants, born for hot and dry climates.

The result is a green, walkable carpet that blooms for months, withstands drought, salt spray, and frost, and reduces watering and maintenance by 80%. It is not an aesthetic compromise: it is a more beautiful, more vibrant lawn that is more honest with the environment.
