Flowering Months

No doubt one of the most stunning plants around, Euonymus alatas is a dense, bushy, deciduous shrub with dark green, oval-shaped leaves that turn spectacular shades of red in autumn. The branchlets of this winged spindle often develop conspicuous corky wings, which are revealed after all the leaves are shed. Flowers are small and green, followed by purplish-red fruits, splitting to reveal orange seeds. Height & Spread: 2.5m (8').

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
