Euonymus 'Green Spire'
- With its compact upright habit, 'Green Spire' is an excellent euonymus to feature in a pot on the patio, its glossy evergreen foliage adding character and charm wherever it's found.
- Low-maintenance and hardy enough to withstand even the harshest UK winters, this plant is a perfect choice for busy gardeners who want their plants to practically look after themselves.
- A fastigiate shape also means that 'Green Spire' is an excellent option for hedging purposes, where it can offer a good alternative to box. It looks just as good used as a standalone feature shrub, however.
- The younger foliage is often a lighter green than the mature darker leaves, lending the plant an attractive two-toned effect.

Meet Cameron
Putting shrubs in the starlight (and boy do they shine…)
Cameron is mad about plants, which is lucky, really, because he’s absolutely surrounded by them here at the nursery. Having studied at the Student Plant Unit at Pershore College, Cameron went on to compete at the Grand Finals for the 2022 Horticulturist of the Year Awards. With a team of dedicated growers on hand to help, Cameron utilises our industry-leading nursery (and the lovely, fertile conditions of the Cotswolds) to grow shrubs that aren’t just good-looking, they’re good-growing too.
