Euonymus ‘Emerald Gaiety’ is a popular evergreen shrub known for its striking green and white variegated foliage. This versatile and hardy plant adds year-round interest to gardens, making it an excellent choice for borders, ground cover, or as a low-maintenance hedge. Its dense, compact growth habit also makes it ideal for container planting. In winter, the white edges of the leaves often take on a pinkish hue, adding a touch of seasonal color.
Euonymus ‘Emerald Gaiety’ thrives in a wide range of conditions. For the best results, plant it in a sunny to partially shaded position with well-drained soil. While it can tolerate full shade, its variegation is most vibrant in partial sun. This shrub typically grows to a height and spread of 60-100 cm (24-39 inches), making it a manageable size for many garden spaces.
Though Euonymus ‘Emerald Gaiety’ is not primarily grown for its flowers, it may produce small, inconspicuous greenish-white blooms in summer. Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in spring to promote healthy growth and vibrant foliage.
Pruning is best done in late spring or early summer after any flowering has occurred. Lightly trim to maintain the desired shape and size, removing any wayward or damaged branches. Regular pruning helps keep the plant compact and encourages fresh growth.
Euonymus ‘Emerald Gaiety’ is an attractive, low-maintenance addition to any garden, providing year-round color and structure.
