Euphorbia oblongata, a dicot, is a
perennial herb that is
not native to California; it was introduced from elsewhere and naturalized in the wild.
The
California Invasive Plant Council
(Cal-IPC)
lists plants that cause serious problems in native ecosystems.
Cal-IPC classifies the statewide impact of
Euphorbia oblongata as limited

Euphorbia oblongata is also classified by the California Department of Food and Agriculture as a Noxious Weed List B: Control required in nurseries, control elsewhere at the discretion of local County Agricultural Commissioner. [CDFA Weeds 2000]
