This winter was so brutal on my Euphorbia Ascot's Rainbow and Blackbird. The year before was pretty mild and the plants came thru looking just slightly beat up. I trimmed a tiny bit here and there but mostly left them intact. But this year they are majorly brown and crunchy! All three were buried in the snow until just recently. I know both are slightly outside my zone 6. So maybe I just have to write them off. But the stems do seem to have some green in them near the base.
Does anyone know if I can prune them back hard and they will live? (I know I CAN prune them back hard....just worried they will REALLY be dead then
)
