| EMERALD SERIES WINTERCREEPER EUONYMUS
Euonymus fortunei 'Emerald 'n Gold'
This euonymus variety is one of several belonging to the Emerald Series - a very hardy, fast growing group of Euonymus fortunei ( Wintercreeper Euonymus ) cultivars. Emerald 'n Gold is a lower growing variety with a very tight, dense branching habit. Foliage is a very nice dark green that is margined in bright golden yellow. This nice yellow margin turns a pinkish burgundy color during winter months, giving the plant a very different, unique look. As with most all Wintercreeper Euonymus, Emerald 'n Gold will climb if planted next to just about any structure, fence, lattice work, etc. Does not climb as aggressively as many other Wintercreeper Euonymus, but some climbing will definitely occur if given the opportunity. Also works well to plant near retaining walls, or banks and allowed to drape over. A very nice, colorful plant that is very easy to grow - has many uses.
