Default EUPHORBIA 'Diamond Frost'

I'm reposted this with a picture

Has anyone grown EUPHORBIA 'Diamond Frost' ?
I found some ay a local "Shed" today, reduced so I bought one to try,
Great looking plant a mass of very small flowers

I am finding a lot of mixed info on line, such as Burncoose saying
"Frost hardy - Plant can withstand temperatures down to -5°C (23°F) "
then saying " Not the sort of plants to be grown outside where there
are likely to be frosts. These plants need to be grown in a
conservatory or cool greenhouse or at least brought inside for the
winter - where it should continue to bloom. "
U S of A sites describe it as a tender annual.
I'm confused

Grew one when they were in fashion about 4 years ago, so did several of
my gardening friends. The plants don't last very long and succumb to
most things, or they seem to in Buckinghamshire anyway
