Euonymus is a pretty, versatile little evergreen hedge often available as either a deciduous, evergreen shrub or small tree. Euonymus plants tend to boast insignificant flowers and colourful fruits if left untrimmed. One of its distinctive traits are the colourful evergreen leaves of many varieties leaves.
Euonymus hedges are great for those looking for low maintenance plants for their garden. Their naturally structured and oriental appearance makes them extremely popular as natural borders for pathways and garden edges when trimmed regularly, but they also can make stunning hedges when left to grow. As an evergreen hedge, you’ll experience lush greenery and structure in your space all year round.
This shrub has a naturally spreading habit, making it a great choice for wall-side planting locations, hedging and screens and informal garden styles. Its tolerance of dense shade also makes it a great choice as a ground cover plant, although it can also make a very neat and easily maintained hedge.
