April 14 Information
Could anyone identify for me this plant which is growing in my Father's garden in Sussex, England? Thank you, DuncanHill ( talk) 21:11, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- Some variety of Euphorbia, from the look of it. Mikenorton ( talk) 21:18, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- Perhaps
Euphorbia amygdaloides var.robbeia, known as Mrs Robb's bonnet apparently.

- @ Mikenorton: That looks like it - the article says it thrives in the dry shade of trees, which the ones at Dad's are. DuncanHill ( talk) 21:27, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- Probably Euphorbia Amigdaloides.
- I advise you to use the free "iNaturalist" application on your Smartphone, so you can identify the plants on the spot. It refers to wikipedia once identified if you wish.
