This cultivar looks its best in spring/ early summer. It has a stunning burgundy-purple foliage with the greenish-yellow false-flowers at the top. Cut back hard when the leaves start to turn to a greyish-green. The plant will develop new red leaves which keeps this perennial appealing. If you do not cut back, this chameleon spurge will lose all its appeal.
