Proven Winners Diamond Collection

Proven Winners Diamond Snow

Proven Winners actually has three euphorbias in their Diamond Collection: Frost, Snow and Mountain.  I have used both the Frost and the Snow.  I find either one of them works wonderfully in the garden. 

Diamond Frost is more airy than the slightly more compact Diamond Snow.  I am sometimes guilty of using the names Frost and Snow interchangeably.  I am trying to get better at using the correct name!

I was first introduced to this marvelous plant way back in 2008 when I had my flower shop, Petals & Porch Post. 

We would sell a lot of patio pots, combo pots and hanging baskets for Mother’s Day.  I marketed this combo basket as “Diamond Cloud”.  Once the basket has a chance to fill out, it looks like the geraniums are floating in a cloud of fluffy white flowers!

 

 

Let’s Dig A Little Deeper on the Topic of Diamond Snow

A perennial plant, Euphorbia Diamond Snow is a hybrid of Euphorbia polychroma and Euphorbia seguieriana and is known for its hardiness and durability.  It is a compact variety that typically grows up to 12 inches tall and 18 inches wide. The plant features a mound of green foliage that is covered with an abundance of small, white flowers throughout the summer months. The flowers bloom from May through September and attract bees and other pollinators to your garden.

Diamond Snow is a very low-maintenance plant.   Not only drought tolerant, it can grow in a range of soil types, including sandy, loamy, and clay soils. While the dainty plant prefers full sun, it can  tolerate partial shade. The plant is hardy to USDA zones 5-8 and can withstand temperatures as low as -10°F.  If you aren’t sure which growing zone you live in, simply check out this USDA Hardiness map found here.
