Euphorbia Excalibur / ‘Froeup’

 

This stately deciduous spurge has red-tinted young leaves with a prominent creamy midrib. As they mature the creamy midrip remains while the leaves become rich green with a velvety rim of burgundy. Bold, long lasting yellow bracts top the foliage for a stunning display in late spring and early summer.
