Description of the plant:
Dwarf varieties of Japanese euonymus (spindle) are the hardiest of all Japanese spindles. This one has small, narrow, leathery, green leaves with white margins. It forms a compact, slow-growing shrub which makes it ideal for rockeries and small or front gardens. Pruning is possible but not necessary. It prefers slightly acidic, moist soil but when fully established it tolerates even longer periods of summer drought. Fully hardy to zone 6.QUICK PRICE OVERVIEW
