Since euphorbia are one of those plants that can tolerate a tiny bit of cold weather you can plant them just a tiny bit earlier in the year than more sensitive plants.

The last month that you can plant euphorbia and expect a good harvest is probably August. Any later than that and your euphorbia may not have a chance to grow to maturity. Starting your euphorbia indoors is a great way to get them started a couple of weeks earlier.
