Euonymus species (Euonymus)

This group of shrubs may be evergreen or deciduous (depending on variety) in our area. Valued most for their foliage, as they have inconspicuous flowers, they are best used as a background, foundation or hedge plant. Plant in part shade, well-drained soil and water once-a-week. Not bothered by rabbits, squirrels
nor deer.
