🌿 𝐅𝐮𝐧 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭: 𝐄𝐮𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐛𝐢𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧'𝐭 𝐜𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲'𝐫𝐞 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐬 𝐨𝐧𝐞!

It's true, some Euphorbias (the desert houseplant kinds) look so much like cacti that it's easy to be fooled. But the garden Euphorbias we stock are hardy perennials grown for their gorgeous foliage and structure, and they're far more cold-tolerant than any cactus!

Why you'll love them:

🌱 Tough and easy – Happy in well-drained soil, low fuss once established.
🍂 Year-round interest – Great foliage, structure, and even winter colour.
⚠️ Handle with care – That milky sap can irritate skin, so gloves are a must when pruning.

Meet Rhys - he always has a smile for you👋

Rhys has been part of the team for 9 months and has been perfecting his butchery skills for over 3 years. 🔪

We asked him to pick his favourites from the counter… and narrowing it down to wasn’t easy! His top picks are our Homemade Cumberland Sausages (who can blame him), Hunter’s Chicken and Korean Pork Belly Slices. 🔥 Let's not forget the Beef & Mushroom Truffles and our Ginger and Chilli Chicken Stir Fry (choosing 3 was pushing it!)

Have you tried any of Rhys’ favourites yet? 👀
