About Euphorbia ‘Medea’

Euphorbia × martinii ‘Medea’ is a compact, evergreen perennial subshrub. A sweet euphorbia with rusty-tinged leaves and neat, compact foliage — a border plant that gives great seasonal interest.

It forms a tidy clump to around 30cm in height and spread, the young rosettes and new foliage showing bronze-tinted green. Apple-green to yellow-green flowers with a distinct dark eye follow from March into June.
