MYRTLE SPURGE is a @coagriculture #Colorado #NoxiousWeed Act “List A” species, which means it is to be eradicated statewide. It spreads by seed, which can be projected up to 15 feet! And those seeds can last up to 8 years! Consider native plant alternatives: sulphur flower, Kinnikinnick, and creeping mahonia.
