Renowned for its prolonged blooming period, Euphorbia 'Miner's Merlot' showcases deep green foliage and erect stems, initially tinged with dark burgundy, intensifying with cooler temperatures to a beautiful dark maroon. Its vibrant lime-yellow flowers provide a striking contrast against the dark foliage. Once established, this variety demonstrates exceptional drought and heat tolerance. 'Miner's Merlot' is resistant to various diseases commonly affecting other euphorbias, making it a valuable addition to garden borders, even in shaded areas. It thrives in well-drained soil and prefers full sun to partial shade. 30-60cm (1-2')
