Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Euphorbia amygdaloides 'Ruby Glow' has bright red new growth, darkening to almost black. The leaf reverses and stems are red. Compact and evergreen. Tolerant of part shade but the best leaf colour is produced in full sun. Use at the front of the border, in rock gardens and in containers. Flowering lasts for months from early spring to early summer. Cut back each flowering stalk to the base when the bracts begin to whither. Remember: the stems that have not flowered yet will be your flowers for next spring.

Cresting a well-groomed base defined by plush evergreen leaves and sturdy stems, plentiful ebullient chartreuse blooms provide vivid contrast. Compact, hardy and downright irresistible 'Ruby Glow' can be nestled near the front of the border, along a pathway or showcased in a patio container. (uspp#22,200)
