Common name: Spindle 'Emerald Gold'

Description: This bright evergreen shrub features attractive green leaves with bold golden-yellow margins that create vibrant year-round colour and interest. The striking variegation brings light and warmth to gardens throughout all seasons. The compact, bushy habit makes it perfect for ground cover, containers, low hedges, or providing colourful evergreen structure in mixed borders. 'Emerald Gold' is ideal for brightening darker corners, creating year-round interest, or providing golden accents in plantings. The golden-edged leaves are particularly valuable in winter when colour is scarce. This hardy, adaptable euonymus requires minimal maintenance and tolerates a wide range of conditions including shade.
