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.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
