  • Description

  • Notes

This little evergreen euonymus is finely textured, with a densely rounded habit growing to only about 1 to 2 feet tall and about half as wide. Foliage is a dark green with white leaf margins. Well suited as a little hedge or border, or as an evergreen specimen in a perennial border. Its compact habit makes it naturally tidy, though it will tolerate shearing.
