Another ID please (Euphorbia) - Small chilli - 19-03-2021
You’ve told me the name of this before. I’m sorry but I’ve forgotten
.I know it a bit early in the season as well, but hopefully someone will know it’s name.
I know it gets to about 3ft tall and has the same colour flowers as it’s leaves. The flower head is made up of lots of little flowers.

I’m in the process of digging lots of it up and was going to offer it on my local plant exchange fb group. need a name before I do that. I’d much rather ask you lot. More experienced ID providers here

Is it a Euphorbia/Spurge? Milky sap - irritant?
RE: Another ID please - Scarlet - 19-03-2021
Yes, agree with VC. Euphorbia, looks like one of the red fancy varieties like fire glow. I love euphorbia. I have a few here.

Thank you ladies. I know it began with E but really couldn’t remember. I can’t stand the stuff! It’s a real thug here.

Is that why you're moving?
RE: Another ID please - Scarlet - 19-03-2021
Yes, I think some can be quite invasive - but I would prefer that coming up rather than ground elder!
