Anyone know the name of this plant?
Small 1/2" fragrant flowers growing on a spindly tree/ shrub. We have several on the property, they have been flowering for months.

Yep, Euphorbia xantii. Very easy from cuttings.

Thanks for the ID. It's a really pretty plant that just keeps blooming for months, smells good too. I'm glad I know what it is now.

Here's a cool site that you may want to investigate...if you are into plants....
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Yes, Euphorbia xantii, known as Liga here in BCS.
I have to hawk my site as well: www.lasecomujeres.org
I have a Baja plant section that I am trying to add to when I have time.
Also, San Diego Natural History Museum has a site with photos, if you know at least part of the plant name:
http://bajaflora.org
To anyone in the Mulege area, I am currently leading plant walks on Fridays at 9 am. Couple of hours long. Free, no dogs please.
Tomorrow we meet at 9 am at Hwy 1 and the road to Punta Arena/Los Naranjos.
Next week, meet along the river at the end of the Serenidad airstrip.
I have two more coming up and signs will be up around town soon with info about March 25 and April 1.
You can also U2U me with questions about the walks or local plants.
Won't be seeing any Euphorbia xantii on the walk, but there is some not too far away.
