More Information

Description With uniquely variegated foliage and flower-like bracts, 'Ascot Rainbow' spurge (or Euphorbia x martinii ) is an intriguing perennial for colorful patio containers or sunny garden beds. Narrow, grey-green foliage has bright yellow margins from spring to fall, but it really shines in the cooler months. In cool temperatures, the foliage picks up red, pink, and orange hues, creating a kaleidoscope of colors on each leaf. As if it weren't already colorful enough, it boasts dark purple stems and variegated flower-like bracts in late spring. It's the perfect plant for variegated plant collectors or any gardener that needs to add flair to their landscape!

Spurges are shrub-like perennials that are easy to grow for gardeners of any level, as long as they're planted in well-draining soils. It's tolerant of heat, drought, and even poor soils, making it ideal for problematic or xeric sites. Since it's resistant to deer, rabbits, and diseases, it takes very little (or no maintenance) to remain attractive all season long. Plant it in full sun in northern zones and part sun (with afternoon shade) in southern zones for the best performance.

Caution: spurges are a relative of poinsettias, so they are also poisonous if ingested by humans or pets. Handle with gloves, as their sap may irritate the skin.

Well Done!

Thank you for this opportunity to send you a review of my recent purchases. Altogether, I purchased
 a total of 42 plants ordered over a period of 30 days. I am very happy to report that each shipment (5 of them) were shipped exactly on my requested shipment date. This greatly facilitated my schedule for planting and it is equally important to mention that every plant arrived properly packaged and every plant arrived healthy. As of today, October 16, 2023, every plant survived and are doing exceptionally well. I see new growth on every plant and I am looking forward to seeing the results of my project this coming Spring! I am ranking greatgardenplants.com as my favorite online nursery and fully expect to use your services again next Spring when my next project(s) come up. Thank you and Well Done!

Ascot Rainbow Spurge

I love the healthy and decorative look of this plant so much that I ordered two more. The rabbits eat most everything I plant, but so far they have left my Spurge plant alone. I will send a picture as soon as the rain stops and I get the new two in the ground. Thank you!
