RE: Euonymus - not all colour in your garden comes from flowers !

in #euonymus6 years ago (edited)

Oh yeah, it's a beautiful plant! A common shrub of which there are many varieties and both evergreen and deciduous. Most of the evergreen varieties are grown for their colourful, strongly coloured foliage and these are the fortunei cultivars.

For ease of reference, although this is a selection of evergreen shrubs and most Euonymus are evergreen, it is worth mentioning here that there is a commonly grown, deciduous variety illustrated top centre, Euonymus 'Red Cascade' which has strong autumn colour and berries.

Euonymus is a versatile, easy to grow evergreen shrub, with some of the best variegated foliage of any garden shrub. They are often overlooked as a simple commonplace shrub, but to do so would under estimate their garden value as a maintenance free garden shrub with lovely variegated foliage.
