Growing & Maintenance Tips

Euonymus can tolerate a range of soils and conditions, but have no tolerance for standing water. ‘Emerald n’ Gold’ requires more sun than other cultivars to keep its vibrant gold colouring in the leaves. Young plants can benefit from protection (burlap wrap) against drying winter winds in an exposed location.
