Summer Icicle Euphorbia

Terrific in white and green gardens, Summer Icicle is prized for its showy, green and bright white edged leaves. It stages a little magic show as the summer progresses~its high contrast, white edging widens. A vigorous grower, it fills in with bushy, full, 12" tall plants. It is super for low border plantings or in between Hostas.
