Height 12-18 Inches Width 12-18 Inches Use as a filler when using in containers Grow outdoors as an annual or as a houseplant! Diamond Frost Euphorbia has airy white flowers with green leaves. It can be used as a cut flower in flower arrangements instead of Baby’s Breath. It can also be grown as a houseplant with adequate sun. The plant has a long blooming season, from June through September. The plant is drought and heat resistant. There is no need to deadhead this plant as the spent blooms simply fall off. This plant has a white, milky, sap that is irritating to the skin. Be sure and wear gloves when handling it. This plant’s mounded growth works as a filler in a container and the white flowers go with any color blooms in a mixed container. Deer and rabbits do not like the sap either and avoid the plant when they can. Diamond Frost® Euphorbia Care Diamond Frost Euphorbia needs an application of compost or fertilizer once in the spring if it is in the ground. If it is in a container, it needs regular fertilization with a water-soluble fertilizer. No deadheading is necessary, the flowers fall off before they look tacky. This plant thrives in full sun but will tolerate partial shade. It appreciates afternoon shade where it is very hot. Diamond Frost Euphorbia needs a very well-drained soil. While drought tolerant once established, it appreciates a drink now and again in the heat. Diamond Frost Euphorbia is an herbaceous perennial native to the very southmost part of the U.S., Mexico, the West Indies, Central America and South America. It has become invasive in Hawaii. The plant will not survive the winter in the rest of the United States unless it is brought inside and put in a brightly lit window. Cut back the stems in spring and place the container outside after all danger of frost is gone. Diamond Frost® Euphorbia Spacing This plant grows to a modest height of 12-18 inches tall. It spreads 12-18 inches and can trail up to 18 inches in a hanging basket. It will need to be the only plant in the hanging basket, or it will need to be a big container, since Diamond Frost Euphorbia needs to be 12-18 inches away from the closest plant.
