Description

Euphorbia characias 'Silver Edge' is an eye-catching evergreen perennial that brings a unique flair to any garden setting. With its striking variegated leaves, which feature a captivating grey-green hue adorned with creamy-white edges, this plant creates a bold architectural presence. Its upright, bushy stems not only add height and structure to borders and gravel gardens but also make it an excellent choice for container arrangements, ensuring that it remains a focal point throughout the year.

In the spring and early summer, 'Silver Edge' showcases large, vibrant flowerheads that are a delightful chartreuse-green, each adorned with small dark centers that add depth and interest. This seasonal display not only enhances the visual appeal of mixed planting schemes but also provides a strong evergreen backbone that contrasts beautifully with other plants. Its ability to thrive in full sun and well-draining soil makes it particularly well-suited for Mediterranean-style gardens, where drought tolerance becomes a significant advantage once the plant is established.

While Euphorbia characias 'Silver Edge' is a resilient and hardy choice for most regions in the UK, it is essential to handle it with care due to its toxic sap, which can irritate the skin and eyes. To maintain its shape and encourage fresh growth, it is advisable to cut back the flowering stems after they have bloomed. This simple maintenance task not only keeps the plant looking its best but also promotes a healthy and vigorous display in the seasons to come. Height: 90 cm (3 ft). Spread: 90 cm (3 ft).
