Blackbird spurge (Euphorbia ‘Blackbird’) is a bushy, dwarf evergreen shrub with colorful foliage that looks good all year round.

In the spring, it is topped by yellow-green flowers that put on a show until summer.

This plant is a favorite with gardeners because of its dark-colored leaves that turn almost black in the sun and provide color in the garden all year round.

In addition to being drought-tolerant and deer- and rabbit-resistant, Euphorbia ‘Blackbird’ also makes a good container plant. A very versatile plant!
