Spurge 'Purpurea'

An attractive evergreen perennial forming a mound of dark purple-flushed foliage, particularly vibrant in cooler weather, reaching 40-60cm in height and spread. In spring, it produces upright terminal clusters of lime-green flowers with yellow bracts, providing a striking contrast against the dark leaves. Ideal for adding year-round colour and texture to borders or gravel gardens in UK gardens. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It will self-seed, but the seedlings may vary in intensity of purple foliage.
