Green Spire Euonymus

Green Spire Euonymus (Euonymus japonicus 'Green Spire') is a tall and narrow evergreen shrub that brings a vertical element to garden landscapes. It reaches a height of 10 to 15 feet and maintains a narrow columnar form, making it a suitable choice for tight spaces or as a vertical accent in the garden. The glossy dark green leaves are lance-shaped and densely arranged along the upright branches. This cultivar is valued for its tidy and compact growth habit, requiring minimal pruning to maintain its desired shape. Green Spire Euonymus is a hardy and adaptable plant, tolerating a wide range of soil types and growing conditions. It prefers full sun to partial shade and is moderately drought tolerant once established. Inconspicuous flowers may appear in spring, followed by small ornamental fruits that ripen to a pinkish-red color in the fall, adding visual interest. This shrub is commonly used as a hedge, screen, or specimen plant, providing year-round structure and greenery to the landscape. With its slender form and low-maintenance nature, Green Spire Euonymus is a versatile choice for adding vertical accents and evergreen foliage to gardens and landscapes.
