**This semi-evergreen plant has colourful foliage and produces bright flowers in late spring to early summer. Hardy throughout most of the UK down to -15°C.** The striking, deep red foliage of this Euphorbia is very different to its spiky desert cousins! New foliage comes through the rich colour of red wine, maturing to deep green and purple shades as the plant grows. This dark colouring contrasts with the bright citrus yellow of the flowers, which bloom for several months. This plant is resistant to deer and many diseases that affect other Euphorbias, making it a good low-maintenance option for your garden; pick a bright spot with well-draining soil and watch the plant thrive! | Perennial | Flowering shrub | Flowers April to June; foliage year-round | | --------- | --------------- | ----------------------------------------- | **Scientific Name** Euphorbia amygdaloides x (Euphorbus' plant that resembles the Amygdalus genus) 'Miner's Merlot' **Common Name** Purple Wood Spurge **Origin**
