Euonymus fortunei ‘Blondy’ is a striking evergreen shrub known for its vibrant yellow and green variegated leaves. This compact and low-growing plant adds a bold splash of color to any garden, making it perfect for borders, ground cover, or container planting. The bright yellow centers of the leaves are surrounded by deep green margins, creating a stunning contrast that is particularly eye-catching throughout the year.
Euonymus ‘Blondy’ thrives in a variety of conditions and is extremely versatile. For the best results, plant it in a sunny to partially shaded position with well-drained soil. While it can tolerate full shade, the yellow variegation is more intense in brighter light. This hardy shrub typically grows to a height and spread of 60-90 cm (24-36 inches), making it ideal for small gardens or as a striking feature in larger landscapes.
Though Euonymus ‘Blondy’ is not primarily grown for its flowers, it may produce small, inconspicuous greenish-white blooms in late spring to early summer. To keep your plant healthy and vigorous, feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring.
Pruning is best done in late spring or early summer after the flowering period. Lightly trim to maintain its shape and size, removing any damaged or wayward branches. Regular pruning encourages a dense, bushy habit and helps maintain the plant’s compact form.
Euonymus ‘Blondy’ is an excellent choice for gardeners looking to add year-round color and low-maintenance beauty to their outdoor spaces.
