Euonymus ‘White Spire’ is a striking, upright evergreen shrub, valued for its variegated green and white foliage that provides year-round interest. With a neat, columnar growth habit, it reaches a height of 1-1.5m and a spread of 0.5-1m, making it an excellent choice for borders, hedging, or container planting.

Although not primarily grown for its flowers, Euonymus ‘White Spire’ produces small, inconspicuous greenish-white flowers in early summer, which can sometimes develop into small pinkish fruits in autumn. This hardy and versatile shrub thrives in a sunny or partially shaded position with well-drained soil. It is tolerant of coastal conditions, pollution, and a range of soil types, making it ideal for urban and low-maintenance gardens.

For best results, plant in autumn or early spring. Feed with a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in early spring to encourage healthy growth and vibrant foliage. Pruning is rarely needed but can be done in late spring to maintain shape.

Euonymus ‘White Spire’ is beneficial for pollinators, as its discreet summer flowers provide an additional nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects. With its year-round structure, resilience, and pollinator-friendly qualities, it’s a fantastic addition to any garden.
