S™ Spurge
Euphorbia x hybrida Miner's™ 'Berry Bordeaux'
Spurge
Currently unavailable
An incredible colorful addition to low water gardens. Spring foliage emerges bright burgundy and darkens to dusky black-red before going rose-pink in fall. Small yellow flowers contrast nicely with the dark foliage but are not particularly showy or long-lasting. Makes a great low border or contrast for sunny, hot, and dry locations.
