European Spindle Hedging | Euonymus europaeus
- Spindle is an attractive and versatile spreading deciduous hedge with a multitude of uses
- Bright green, narrow ovate leaves form the perfect backdrop to sprigs of yellow flowers in spring. These are followed by red fruits which split to reveal orange seeds before the leaves turn to spectacular shades of red or yellow in autumn
- A fully hardy, fast growing plant which will reach a height of approx 3m but can easily be maintained at 1-2m
- Spindle will grow well in all soil types and sites, preferring a position in sun or light shade – plant in full sun for the best colour
- Popular with garden designers and in show gardens, Euonymus can be used to create a formal, structured look for pathways, focal points or borders. If left to grow, they take on a more natural and informal look
- A fully hardy and low maintenance hedge which is ideal for wildlife gardens, formal or cottage gardens
