Spindle Trees

Spindle trees (Euonymus spp.) are attractive deciduous shrubs or small trees known for their stunning autumn foliage and colourful, ornamental fruits. These versatile plants are perfect for hedging, screening, or adding a pop of colour to mixed borders in gardens throughout the UK.

• Vibrant autumn foliage in shades of red, pink, and purple.
• Colourful, ornamental fruits add winter interest to the garden.
• Versatile shrubs for hedging, screening, or mixed borders.
• Low-maintenance and adaptable to various soil types and conditions.

Plant Spindle trees in well-draining soil in full sun to partial shade. They are adaptable to various soil types but prefer fertile, slightly alkaline soil. Water regularly during establishment, then only during prolonged dry spells once established. Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain desired shape and size, removing any damaged or crossing branches.
