Evergreen Euonymus (Wintercreeper)
×
Color Name: Emerald Gaiety
The landscape fun lasts all year long with this playful broadleaved evergreen. Distinct white margins adorn the round, deep green foliage of this euonymus giving it more than enough glorious color to make it a focal point in the garden throughout the year, wowing you even more all winter as the white edges turn distinctly pink as the temperatures plummet. Known to be slower growing than the species, this Wintercreeper requires little maintenance and will be a steady climber if given the opportunity to grow up against any structure. Full sun or part shade and any well-drained soil will keep this beauty happy all year long in a multiplicity of uses from specimen to climber to low hedge or border to a group planting, beautifully massed on a slope.
Growing Tips: Colorful variegation is ideal for brightening shady spots in the landscape.
Soil: Adaptable to any well-drained soil.
Pruning: Prune as needed in early spring.
Uses: Mass plantings; edging; foundation plantings; groundcover.
