Euphorbia - Hypericifolia/ Diamond Frost

The Hypericifolia with its clouds of fairy white flowers creates a mystical feeling in the garden. This wispy pant is native to America and resemble “baby’s breath”. These delicate small white flowers are interspersed among their Olive-green leaves.

The Diamond Frost have a lovely spread of 50-60cm wide, ideal for borders next to a pathway, for hanging baskets, pots and containers. They perform just as well indoors if kept in good light and florists use them as filler plants in arrangements.

This beauty is a perfect companion for other water-wise plants. They enjoy full sun and semi-shade. Needs to be fertilized every 6 weeks but are water-wise and a low maintenance plant.

It flowers all year long in the warmer climates but in the colder areas they are grown as summer annuals as they are frost sensitive. They are drought resistant, can tolerate heat and cold but not frost and over watering.
