Euphorbia dulcis 'Chameleon' - This Euphorbia offers a change of color in almost every season. Wonderful, burgundy-colored leaves in spring form yellow-green bracts in summer and then both bracts and leaves turn to a dark purple in fall. It grows to a foot high and wide. It is quite frost hardy ( 0 degrees F). Looks best in full sun but will also grow in light shade.
