Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Dwelling above 5000 ft. throughout the eastern Himalayas in forest clearings and grazed hillsides, this superb robust species sports olive-green foliage with a springtime rubescent blush and distinctive milky white midribs. Staunch, red-imbued clumping stems bolster summer blooming lime-yellow inflorescences. We spotted this unique form of Euphorbia donii at Christopher Lloyd's Great Dixter years ago and have since enjoyed its cool-colored bracts swaying amid Sanguisorba 'Red Thunder' in our own garden.
