The ‘Urge to Splurge’ Euphorbia is a stunning perennial that brings life to your garden early in the season. As one of the first plants to emerge after frost, it heralds the arrival of spring with cheerful, sunny yellow flowers that bloom in early spring. As the season progresses, glaucous blue-green foliage takes over, transforming into rich shades of red and bronze in the fall, adding vibrant seasonal interest.
The plant’s size dramatically increases after flowering, with long, narrow foliage billowing into lush mounds that provide an elegant texture to your garden. Not only is it visually captivating, but it also boasts excellent resilience, being both deer and rabbit resistant. This is thanks to the sap emitted by broken stems, which deters browsing animals. However, be mindful when handling this plant, as the sap can irritate the skin. With its striking beauty and hardy nature, the ‘Urge to Splurge’ Euphorbia is an essential addition to any garden!
