Euonymus alatus

Burning Bush 

Family: Cleastraceae

(Euon-ymus: Ancient Greek name; ala-tus: winged)

CHICAGO FIRE    

(E. alatus 'Timber Creek') A hardier selection of burning bush! The brilliant fire-red fall foliage appears earlier than does 'Compacta'. Attractive orange fruit. FIRST CHOICE AWARD '95.

Zone 3, 8-10 feet, gr 1.5, Full Sun

'Compacta' 

The ubiquitous burning bush that becomes conspicuous each autumn. Compact branching does not mean dwarf by any means. Full sun is necessary for good fall color.

Zone 4, 8-10 feet, gr 1.5, Full Sun  

FIRE BALL

(E. alatus 'Select')

An improved selection of 'Compacta' with tighter branching and superior stem hardiness. No winter damage even after the coldest of winters, while 'Compacta' may die back. Outstanding fall color! Selected at Cole Nursery.

Zone 4, 5-7 feet, gr 1.5, Full Sun

'Rudy Haag'   

This is a great plant! A true dwarf selection with consistent red fall color. Selected at the Bernheim Arboretum.

Zone 4, 3-5 feet, gr 2.5, Full Sun

Euonymus fortunei

Euonymus 

Family: Cleastraceae

(For-tune-i: for Robert Fortune, 1812-1880, English botanist)      

BLONDY®   

(E. f 'Interbolwi' PP#10,424) A colorful new shrub with big, clear yellow thumbprints in the center of each leaf. Bright yellow stems. Very popular in Europe, where it has replaced 'Sunspot'! Discovered by Bolwijn Nursery in the Netherlands. Great impulse plant. FIRST CHOICE AWARD '99.

Zone 5, 18-24 inches, gr 1.5, Full Sun Partial Shade

'Emerald Gaiety'

Green and cream evergreen foliage turns pinkish-red in winter. Low growing, irregular habit, may climb or sprawl. AWARDS: AGM

Zone 5, 18 inches, gr 1, Full Sun Partial Shade Shade

'Emerald n' Gold'

Bright green and gold evergreen foliage turns pink-red in winter. Low growing irregular habit, climbs and sprawls. AWARDS: AGM

Zone 5, 18 inches, gr 1, Full Sun Partial Shade Shade

  GOLD SPLASH

(E. f 'Roemertwo' ) Not just another Euonymus! A sport of 'Emerald n' Gold' with big round leaves displaying a thick deep golden-yellow edge. Very showy. Excellent impulse appeal. Yellow fruit and orange seed are very showy and persistent. Excellent hardiness, too. A wonderful introduction by Roemer Nursery.

Zone 5, 18-24 inches, gr 1, Full Sun Partial Shade Shade
