General Care

• Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade, requiring at least 4–6 hours of direct light daily for the best color and growth.
• Watering: Provide regular moisture during the growing season to support steady development, allowing the soil to slightly dry between waterings.
• Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch around the base to conserve moisture and stabilize soil temperature, ensuring mulch is kept a few inches away from the trunk for proper airflow.
• Pruning: Light pruning in late winter or early spring helps maintain its tidy, mounded form and encourages fresh, vigorous growth.

Euonymus, Blondy is a beautiful, low-maintenance accent that delivers a refined and uplifting presence to any Michigan landscape.
