Description

A masterpiece of understated elegance - this evergreen beauty is a gardener's dream, offering year-round charm with its striking silvery-white leaf margins that shimmer in the sunlight.

The compact, bushy form of this plant makes it a versatile addition to borders, rockeries, or patio pots, seamlessly enhancing any garden design. Come spring, clusters of lime-green bracts emerge, adding a fresh burst of colour and creating a dazzling contrast against the silvery-edged foliage.

Hardy and drought-tolerant, 'Silver Edge' thrives in a sunny or lightly shaded spot, rewarding you with reliable, low-maintenance beauty. It’s ideal for busy gardeners who crave impact without the hassle. Plant it alongside grasses or bold perennials for a stunning layered look, or use it as a feature plant in a modern, minimalist scheme.

Best of all, this Euphorbia is wildlife-friendly, having been recommended as an RHS 'Plant for Pollinators', offering early-season interest for bees while being unappealing to deer and rabbits.

Supplied as an established plant in a 9cm pot, ready to plant.

Top Tips
  • Once established, Euphorbia ‘Ascot Rainbow’ is drought-resistant and requires minimal watering. Water only during prolonged dry spells, and avoid overwatering.
  • Care Information

    How To Plant:

    • Loosen the soil in your chosen area and mix in organic matter such as compost or well-rotted manure for added nutrients.
    • Make a hole twice the width of the plant's root ball and just as deep.
    • Carefully remove the Euphorbia ‘Ascot Rainbow’ from its pot. Place it in the hole with the top of the root ball level with the soil surface.
    • Space plants approximately 45-60cm apart to allow for their mature size and airflow.
    • Fill the hole with soil, firming it gently around the base of the plant to remove air pockets. Avoid covering the crown of the plant.
    • After planting, water thoroughly to help the plant settle in and establish roots.

    Caring:

    • In spring, apply a balanced, slow-release fertiliser to support healthy growth and vibrant foliage.
    • After flowering, cut back any spent flower stems to maintain the plant’s shape. Always wear gloves when pruning as the sap can irritate the skin.
    • This plant is fully hardy but benefits from mulch around the base in late autumn to protect the roots in very harsh winters.

    Euphorbia sap is toxic if ingested and can cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Always wear gloves and wash your hands thoroughly after handling.

    Delivery Information

    Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

    Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

    We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

    Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

    Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

    Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
