Euphorbia martinii Ascot Rainbow, commonly known as Martins Spurge, is a striking perennial prized for its dramatic, multi-tonal foliage and unique blooms. Its narrow, variegated leaves are an eye-catching blend of green, cream, and golden yellow, with tinges of soft pink and red that intensify in cooler months. This foliage provides a constant burst of colour, making Ascot Rainbow a perfect choice for adding year-round vibrancy to borders, containers, or mixed planting schemes.. Reaching a compact height of 40-60 cm, Ascot Rainbow is a manageable yet impactful plant that thrives in sunny to partially shaded locations. From late spring through summer, it produces clusters of lime-green and chartreuse bracts with a subtle pink blush, creating a dynamic display that contrasts beautifully with its variegated foliage..
