Because its persistent bracts are what we read as the \"bloom\", it has a long-lasting presence in the garden and the leaves turn shades of reddish-orange as the days shorten and the air cools. It grows naturally in a formal dome shape. Good for edges, containers, and rock gardens. Looks great coming up with later-blooming bulbs that like similar conditions, such as species tulips. As with Ladies Mantle, this may be a strong seeder. However, also like Ladies Mantle, the seedlings are easy to identify and either move or remove. The stems of Euphorbias contain sap that can cause contact dermatitis or eye injury, so be mindful of that. The same sap makes the plant deer and rabbit resistant. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSource: \u003c\/strong\u003eVan Berkum Nursery\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImage credits: \u003c\/strong\u003eWikimedia Commons\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Honey Petal Plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53103038169395,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0910\/6115\/8195\/files\/Euphorbia_polychroma.jpg?v=1772543938","url":"https:\/\/honeypetalplants.com\/products\/euphorbia-polychroma-cushion-spurge","provider":"Honey Petal Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
