Showy, exotic and with evergreen foliage, this Spurge puts on a great display all year round. In April, tall flower spires rise above the foliage bearing a mass of lime green flowers, each with a black eye gleaming at its centre. These tall, architectural flower spires stay on the plant from spring until the first frosts of winter, making it one of the longest flowering of garden plants. Euphorbia characias 'Black Pearl' is an excellent choice for a dry, sunny Mediterranean-style garden and will withstand drought. The nectar of Milkweed is attractive to pollinating insects. Height and Spread: 60cm (24).
Plants with architectural interest are often quite large but Euphorbia 'Glacier Blue' is just 60cm wide and 60cm tall so everyone can find a space for it. The blue-green leaves are highlighted with cream edges so will give a silver effect that will be very welcome in winter gardens. From March to June tall stems of nectar-rich creamy green flowers will emerge to stand proud over the contrasting variegated foliage. With the extra feature of being drought resistant Euphorbia ?Glacier Blue' makes the perfect compact plant for low-maintenance borders and as cut flowers too. Height and spread: 60cm (24).
