The poinsettia is a euphorbia also, by the way. The real question, I think,
however, is, "Do you really think your 2-year-old would chomp on your
plants?" If so, then supervise until the child is old enough to know
better.

Good luck!

I hear Euphorbias are poisonous. I have one in my yard and I have 3
young children. Should I go and tear it out? Is it poisonous to the
point of being dangerous? How much would a 2 year old have to ingest
for it to do harm? I love the tree but not enough to risk getting the
kids sick. Thanks.
