Petty Spurge |
|
|
Petty Spurge is another weed which is found in abundance on
waste ground and in gardens.
The individual green/yellow flowers are tiny and are grouped
in threes to form the flowerhead. The leaves are oval. The
stem is hollow and filled with a poisonous, milky sap - as are
other members of the spurge family.
