A Plant to Love: ‘Glamour’ Euphorbia

We love to incorporate euphorbia into the traditional garden, our container gardens, within a rock garden or even in large swaths. Often overlooked, once you’ve tried it you won’t want to garden without it. The delicate nature of the plant belies its tough nature—a welcome characteristic for busy gardeners. Its light, airy look balances heavier plants, making it an excellent selection for contrast and for building drama in the garden.
