Euphorbia lathyris ‘Caper Spurge’ Mole Plant & Cautionary Seeds

Description

Cautionary Botanical Specimen. Also known as the “Mole Plant” due to folklore about repelling moles, this unique biennial is grown for its striking, architectural form. It features upright, blue-green stems with symmetrical, lance-shaped leaves arranged in a cross pattern. In its second year, it produces curious greenish-yellow flower structures. All parts of this plant exude a toxic, milky sap that can cause severe skin and eye irritation. Handle with extreme care and gloves.

Suitable only for ornamental or curiosity planting in controlled settings by informed gardeners, and not for areas frequented by children or pets.

    A Thoughtful Gift for Garden Lovers

    Finding the perfect gift for someone who loves gardening doesn’t have to be complicated. Seeds are more than just a present — they’re an experience. A promise of growth, color, and time spent outdoors doing what they love.

    Whether it’s a burst of flowers, a productive vegetable patch, or a greener lawn, carefully chosen seeds make a meaningful and lasting gift. They arrive with possibility, grow with care, and leave memories long after the season ends.

    For anyone who finds joy in planting and watching life unfold, this is a gift that truly keeps growing.
