Euonymus is one of the most versatile evergreen shrubs. There are many varieties both green and variegated, all worth growing. Euonymous fortunei 'Emerald n Gold' is one of the most common forms with bright-golden, variegated leaves. These turn an attractive pinkish-red in cold weather, making it a great choice for adding winter colour.

Euonymous fortunei 'Emerald n Gold' makes an excellent specimen shrub, as well as a low, informal hedge or a climber. Cut back growth by one-third in the first spring after planting to encourage a bushy habit, and remove any plain green reverted stems whenever seen.
