Description
Euphorbia 'Ascot Liliput' is a dwarf spurge with a sharp eye for detail, bringing colour, texture and neat structure to modern borders, gravel gardens and containers. Its narrow, slender leaves are a crisp grey-green, sometimes leaning towards blue or sage, and they sit beautifully against striking deep purple stems. In spring, Euphorbia 'Ascot Liliput' produces vivid blooms that lift the whole plant with a fresh, glowing brightness, just when the garden is waking up and looking for a little encouragement. Compact but full of presence, Euphorbia 'Ascot Liliput' is ideal for edging paths, dotting through mixed planting, or adding a clean architectural note to smaller spaces.
As the seasons turn, Euphorbia 'Ascot Liliput' continues to earn its place, with foliage tips flushing reddish-pink to bronze in cooler autumn and winter weather. This multi-season interest makes it far more than a spring performer, while its extreme low-maintenance nature suits gardeners who admire polish but have no desire to fuss. Plant Euphorbia 'Ascot Liliput' in well-drained soil in sun to partial shade, where its colouring and compact habit will show to best effect. Handsome, resilient and quietly contemporary, Euphorbia 'Ascot Liliput' brings year-round style with the sort of effortless confidence that makes neighbouring plants look slightly over-dressed.

Useful information
-
Soak the Euphorbia 'Ascot Petite' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting
Plant your "Dwarf spurge" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost within a week of delivery and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed. Some varieties are a length of root which should be planted lengthways and shallowly (1-2cm deep).
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
