They face outward from upright spikes whilst the new leaves emerge pale yellow-green coloured with a mosaic of red. Shiny foliage forms weed smothering spreading mats.E. perraldianum grows naturally in mountain Oak and Cedar forests in Northern Algeria and North Africa. It is very similar to E.pinnatum subsp. Colchicum, differing mainly in numbers of leaflets and its notably spiny leaf margins. Subgenus Rhizophyllum
