Product Information
Enjoy year-round interest from the rich and dark purple leaves of this hardy Euphorbia. Being extremely drought tolerant, it's easy to understand why this purple beauty is known as one of the easiest perennials to grow.
Hardy to stand firm in freezing temperatures as low as -15C, 'Miner's Merlot' is a vigorous grower that is also ideal for attracting pollinators to the garden. The tips of the stems are even capped with yellowy green flowers to mark early summer days.
Eye-catching colours and strong stems make it the perfect choice for borders, planters, or containers and can even be used as an accompaniment to cut flowers! 'Miner's Merlot' is great in patio pots, but also looks magnificent in rockeries or simply used as ground cover.
Boasting changing foliage colour, from reddish purple when young to near-black when temperatures plummet in autumn, resulting in some striking colour combinations.
Supplied as an established plant in a 9cm pot, ready for planting.

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.
