Clumsyhaze's Garden
Euonymus
Genus: Euonymus.
Species: Euonymus fortunei.
Garden care: Tip prune young plants in mid to late spring to encourage bushy growth and apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant. Remove any plain green-leaved shoots as soon as they appear, cutting them back to the original branch.
