Euphorbia × martinii 'Ascot Rainbow' is an award-winning evergreen perennial prized for its colorful variegated foliage that provides interest in every season. Blue-green leaves are edged in creamy yellow and develop attractive pink and rosy-red tones during cool weather. In spring, clusters of bright lime-green flowers emerge above the colorful foliage, creating a striking display.
This compact, drought-tolerant perennial is an excellent choice for borders, rock gardens, containers, and modern landscape designs. It pairs beautifully with ornamental grasses, lavender, salvias, and other sun-loving perennials.
