Tasmanian Tiger Spurge (Euphorbia characias 'Tasmanian Tiger')

Tasmanian Tiger spurge brings crisp, year-round structure with gray-green foliage edged in creamy white, giving sunny beds a clean, modern look. In spring, it adds bold chartreuse flower bracts that glow from a distance and keep the planting lively when many perennials are just getting started. Once established, it handles heat and dry periods well in well-drained soil, making it a dependable choice for lower-input landscapes. If you want an architectural plant that looks finished almost every day of the year, this one delivers.

Distinctive Features

This evergreen spurge forms a dense, upright mound of narrow, spiraled leaves with bright variegation, then produces tall, cone-like clusters of chartreuse bracts with creamy accents in late winter to spring, often extending into early summer depending on climate. The foliage stays attractive for a long season and provides strong contrast with dark greens and blues. Plants develop a shrubby, semi-woody framework with sturdy stems that hold their form. Like many euphorbias, it exudes milky sap that can irritate skin, so handle with care when cutting.

Growing Conditions

  • Sun: Full sun to part shade, with the tightest habit and best color in full sun.
  • Soil: Dry to medium, sharply well-drained soil, and avoid sites that stay wet in winter.
  • Water: Low to medium water, watering to establish, then watering sparingly once rooted in.
  • Zones: USDA Zones 7 to 10.
  • Mature Size: Typically 2 to 3 feet tall and 2 to 3 feet wide.

Ideal Uses

  • Focal Point: Place one where spring chartreuse bracts can read as a bright, architectural accent against darker evergreens or stone.
  • Waterwise Beds: Ideal for low irrigation plantings where reliable structure matters.
  • Rock Gardens: Thrives in gritty, well-drained soils and looks natural among boulders and gravel.
  • Borders: Adds a clean, upright form that contrasts well with mounding perennials and grasses.
  • Containers: Works in large pots with excellent drainage for a bold, evergreen statement.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Pruning: After flowering, cut spent flowering stems down near the base, wearing gloves to avoid sap contact.
  • Watering: Avoid overwatering, especially in winter, because wet soil can cause decline.
  • Feeding: Skip heavy fertilizer, because leaner conditions typically produce sturdier growth and better form.
  • Mulching: Use a light, breathable mulch that does not trap moisture around the crown.
  • Handling: Wear gloves and avoid touching eyes, because the sap can be irritating.

Why Choose Tasmanian Tiger Spurge?

  • Evergreen Structure: Variegated foliage provides year-round form and contrast in mild-winter climates.
  • Spring Impact: Chartreuse bracts add bold early-season color when the garden needs it most.
  • Drought Tolerance: Performs well in heat and dry spells once established in well-drained soil.
  • Deer Resistance: Often avoided by deer, making it a practical choice for many landscapes.
  • Clean, Modern Look: Architectural habit and bright variegation make plantings look intentional and polished.

If you want a plant that brings structure first and flowers second, Tasmanian Tiger spurge is a smart addition to sunny, well-drained gardens. Give it sharp drainage, keep winter soil on the drier side, and it will reward you with reliable form and a strong spring show. It pairs especially well with grasses, salvias, and dark-leaved companions that make the variegation pop. The result is a border that feels brighter, cleaner, and more designed with very little effort.

All around helpful---worth the money!
Format: Paperback
This guide has been most helpful for all the folks I help prepare for the iTEP test! It gives insight into what each section of the test is looking for along with examples and great tips about actually TAKING the test. In the Writing and Speaking sections, it also gives sample scores and comments from the Master Grader which is very helpful too.

Comprehensive, clear and coherent!
Format: Paperback
The iTEP Practice Guide combines a no-nonsense approach to the specific iTEP tests and at the same time offers exercises that task the student with what they need to know. Exercises not only serve the purpose of scoring well, but the overall approach is communicative competence. We use the text in our group and one-to-one classes with very positive--and lasting--results.

No recomiendo
Format: Paperback
Muy malo, no vine completo, además se demoró mucho más de lo que decía al momento de comprarlo. Solo aplazaban la fecha de entrega sin consultar cómo afectaba al cliente. Yo tuve que presentar el examen sin el libro, porque no llegó en la fecha que decía al comprarlo y después se cambió 3 veces la fecha, casi cumpliendo el mes.
