Euphorbia ‘Silver Swan’

Common Name:
Silver Swan Spurge

Description:
Euphorbia ‘Silver Swan’ is a beautifully variegated evergreen perennial prized for its silver-white edged foliage and distinctive floral bracts. It forms a symmetrical, clumping mound of narrow grey-green leaves with crisp white margins that glow in sunlight, adding year-round texture and contrast to garden beds, borders, and containers. From late winter through spring, it produces clusters of creamy-green flower bracts with subtle pinkish centres, held above the foliage on sturdy upright stems. Ideal for Melbourne’s climate, ‘Silver Swan’ thrives in full sun to part shade and well-drained soil, showing excellent drought tolerance once established. It is especially effective in coastal, dry, and modern garden designs. Its low-maintenance nature, combined with its luminous foliage, makes it a standout choice for contemporary planting schemes and water-wise landscapes.
