Description

Striking from every angle, SAHARA™ Blackbird Euphorbia blurs the line between flower and foliage star. In early spring, its chartreuse blooms rise above moody, wine-toned leaves that keep their dramatic hue through the seasons. Compact and architectural, this plant delivers color contrast and structure in one tidy package.

The new growth emerges dark red, deepening into black-purple bracts that anchor garden beds or containers with flair. Its compact 16–20" size makes it ideal for mixed borders, minimalist designs, or adding bold texture to rock gardens.

Effortless and eye-catching, this drought-tolerant, deer-resistant variety provides year-round interest with very little care—just give it sun and stand back.
