Patio Spindle Tree | Euonymus fortunei 'Emerald 'n Gold'

If you've got the words emerald and gold in your name, then you best make sure you've earned it... Boy does this euonymus earn it. With its brilliant variegated foliage in chartreuse and lime green hues, this variety delivers instant evergreen impact wherever it's found. Growing to just over a metre (or so) in height, it's perfect for patios, terraces and balconies (or even in beds and borders). A recipient of the RHS's prestigious Award of Garden Merit, this variety has been shown to perform particularly well in British gardens. Did you know? Spindle plants (its common name) were called as such because they were the preferred wood to make the kinds of spindles used in old textile manufacturing!
