We thought we'd try this variegated spurge in containers, but reports on the web say it is hardy to zone 4, which we have been hesitant to believe, despite what the patent label says. We do love it's blue green foliage that is delicately rimmed with cream and peachy pink, and especailly love the vareigated bracts that adorn this plant throughout the season. We suggest planting 'Helena's Blush' in a protected spot if you're going to try it in the landscape.
