  An evergreen perennial with upright shoots bearing grey-green leaves edged with creamy white, reminiscent of tiger stripes. Conical flowerheads appear in spring, displaying creamy bracts, each with a chartreuse eye. A lover of sunny and drier spots in the garden, 'Tasmanian Tiger' will burn brightly alongside complementary perennials such as wallflower, valerian, and catmint.
  
  
• Garden care: To promote new shoots remove flowered stems to their base in spring after the flowers have faded. When working with spurges always wear gloves since the milky sap is poisonous and a potential skin irritant. Best in a sheltered location and must have good drainage.
