Martin's Spurge (Euphorbia x martinii) is a striking evergreen sub-shrub that serves as a masterclass in architectural garden structure. A natural hybrid discovered in southern France, it combines the best traits of its parents: the rugged, upright nature of Mediterranean Spurge and the refined foliage of Wood Spurge. It is most celebrated for its dense, rounded rosettes of narrow, dark gray-green leaves that are often flushed with a deep burgundy tint on the stems and new growth.

In late spring and through the summer, the plant produces large, showy clusters of chartreuse or lime-green bracts. These "flowers" are uniquely accented by tiny, contrasting red or purple centers (eyes), creating a vibrant neon effect in the landscape. Because it is exceptionally drought-tolerant and naturally resistant to deer and rabbits, it is a professional-grade choice for Mediterranean-style gardens, rockeries, and water-wise borders. You will receive a healthy 4" plant, ready to add sophisticated, year-round texture and exotic color to your sunny garden spaces.

Why you’ll love it:

  • Architectural Form: Maintains a tidy, mounded habit with stiff stems that provide excellent year-round structure.
  • Vibrant Bicolor Blooms: Chartreuse-green bracts with striking red "eyes" provide high-impact color for months.
  • Evergreen Foliage: Dark gray-green leaves often take on bronze or burgundy tones in cooler weather or on new growth.
  • Rugged & Resilient: Highly tolerant of heat, drought, and poor soils once established; naturally unappealing to deer and gophers.
  • Low Maintenance: An easy-to-grow perennial that requires minimal care beyond pruning back spent flower stems in late summer.

This 4" healthy live plant thrives in full sun to light shade and requires sharply-drained soil to remain healthy, especially in the winter months. While it is highly drought-tolerant, it maintains its most lush and professional appearance with occasional deep watering during extended dry spells. Note: Like all Euphorbias, this plant contains a milky sap that can be an irritant; it is recommended to wear gloves when pruning. Martin's Spurge is the ultimate choice for the gardener seeking bold, structural beauty and reliability in a convenient 4" size.

We use expedited shipping policies to protect plant health and minimize plant stress in transit.  All plants are in transit for only 1-3 days. (This does not guarantee 3-day delivery as orders are not always packed and sent out on the day of your order.) We send out deliveries on a weekly schedule to ensure quick transit times, so your order may not be packaged and shipped until later in the week. For instance, we may hold shipments to avoid weekend delays that keep plants in transit for longer.

All packaging includes eco-friendly material and our shipping methods are tested regularly to ensure plants arrive healthy upon arrival.

Additionally, any delays or damages in shipping are covered by our Healthy Plant Guarantee.

If you're plants arrived damaged, we will happily replace them for free!

Please contact us, send a picture, and detail any damage, so that we can continue to improve our shipping process and make sure you receive the healthy plants you paid for.
