A Bold Burst of Color in the Garden

Scientifically known as Euphorbia cyathophora, this vibrant species is a true showstopper in gardens and wild landscapes alike. With its brilliant red-orange bracts resembling flickering flames, it’s no wonder this plant earned such a fiery name.What truly sets Fire-on-the-Mountain apart is its colorful display. The upper leaves or bracts turn bright red or orange near the base of the tiny, inconspicuous flowers. This brilliant coloration gives the illusion of a small fire burning at the top of the plant hence the name.The plant typically grows between 1 to 3 feet tall with an upright, slightly branching stem. Its leaves are dark green with irregular lobes, offering an attractive contrast to the flaming bracts.

Fire-on-the-Mountain blooms primarily in summer and early fall. While the actual flowers are small and greenish-yellow, it’s the eye-catching bracts that attract pollinators like butterflies, bees, and wasps. The plant’s unique appearance also makes it a favorite among gardeners looking to add bold color to wildflower beds or borders.
