For gardeners seeking long-lasting foliage colour & dependable form, Euphorbia offers exceptional value across the seasons.
Euphorbia ‘Miner’s Merlot’ features slender upright stems clad in deep burgundy foliage that matures to near-black by autumn, topped with contrasting lime-green floral bracts in late spring to early summer. Euphorbia ‘Silver Edge’ stands out with tidy upright grey-green leaves edged in crisp silver-white, producing luminous yellow-green bracts that brighten borders from mid-spring. Both are compact, clump-forming perennials, each reaching ~60 cm tall × wide, bringing year-round definition & texture to gravel gardens, borders, low hedging & modern planting designs.
Supplied as large, well-established 3L rootball grown in peat-free compost, these Euphorbias are outdoor garden ready & quick to establish. Their strong stems, densely packed foliage & vibrant bracts provide structure with minimal care. Naturally attractive to bees & butterflies, they thrive in sun-drenched beds with well-drained soil. Fully rooted plants arrive in plastic-free, gift-ready packaging, ensuring both sustainability & garden performance. Perfect for adding bold architectural flair, lasting colour & pollinator value to your planting scheme
