Description

A unique treat! Rich dark purple leaves grow in abundance on this evergreen Euphorbia, while yellowy green flowers mark the end of spring. Foliage evolves through the seasons, from deep purple to hues of olive-green, offering striking colour combinations.

'Miner's Merlot' thrives in pots and containers, but is just as magnificent in rockeries or simply used as ground cover. Extremely drought tolerant, easy to grow, and hardy to withstand temperatures as low as -15C, this vigorous grower will remain healthy for years, even attracting pollinators and other beneficial insects to the garden.

Top Tips
  • No special care is required - this really is the perfect option for the most casual of gardeners! Cut back by a third after flowering to prevent seeding. Damaged stems can be cut off in spring.
Care Information
  • For best results, position in a sunny spot of moist, well-drained soil.
  • When planting multiple varieties, be sure to space each 45cm apart.
  • Cut back the faded flower stems when they start to die back.
  • When working with spurges, always wear gloves as the milky sap is poisonous and a potential skin irritant.
  • Remove unwanted seedlings each spring as part of routine border maintenance.
