This group of euonymus are evergreen to semi-evergreen, and have a spreading and climbing habit. As a groundcover, it has a humpy, mounding habit; as a climber, it needs a little assistance to get started but will eventually cling to and climb up any available surface. Purpleleaf Wintercreeper has particularly attractive fall color; variegated forms are nice in dry shade areas to lighten things up.
Not particular of soil type, except not tolerant of wet or boggy soils. Grows in full sun to full shade, and the less sun, the less water it needs. A good plant for dry shade areas. However, prolonged periods of drought can cause stress and increase susceptibility to white fly, scale, and aphids, so periodic irrigation is recommended. Do not use in riparian corridor areas as it can become invasive.
