Plant description
A long-blooming Euphorbia with dark green foliage and upright stems that emerge a dark burgundy becoming more intense with lower temperatures in the spring. Bright lime-yellow flowers contrast beautifully with the dark foliage that is both drought and heat tolerant once established. Resistant to deer and many diseases that affect other euphorbias, ‘Miners Merlot’ is a great addition to any water-wise or Mediterranean style garden borders.

How to care for Euphorbia Miners Merlot (PBR):
Plant in sunny borders in fertile, moist but well-drained soil, watering regularly while they establish. These hardy perennials die back in winter and re-emerge in spring. Cut old stems down to ground level in late autumn or early spring to keep the plants tidy, and divide congested clumps every few years to maintain vigour.
Apply a light mulch in winter to protect roots and retain moisture. They pair well with ornamental grasses and late-flowering perennials, and tolerating occasional dry periods once established.
