NEW ADDITION FOR 2020 - ORDER NOW FOR DELIVERY APRIL 2020
ONE of the most handsome winter foliage plants, Euphorbia x martinii produces dark greyish-green rosettes of leaves on stiff stems that reach 60cm. The flowers, which appear as spring glides into summer, form an upright spike of lime-green bracts – each studded with a tomato-red eye. This combination of zingy lime green with a hint of warm red is one of the most alluring in the plant kingdom. E. x martinii also has poise; each leafy rosette is perfectly balanced by the flower head. This impressive euphorbia is a natural hybrid discovered growing wild in southern France during the late 19th century. The parents are E. amygdaloides (the wood spurge) and E. characias. Both are valuable garden plants in their own right.
