Description
Mother-of-pearl new shoots make Euonymus japonicus Paloma Blanca luminous from early March to early June before the foliage gradually matures to glossy deep green. This dense upright evergreen reaches about 16 to 28 inches high and 12 to 24 inches wide, suiting low hedges, topiary, borders, and containers.
Grow it in sun or partial shade in moist but well-drained soil. Water during establishment, mulch in spring, and tip-prune young plants after the pale flush. All parts are harmful if eaten, so wear gloves and clear clippings carefully.
