Description

Euonymus Gaiety delivers a stunning splash of variegated beauty to the landscape with its textured leaves edged in creamy white against a rich green center. In Michigan’s cooler climate, this evergreen shrub maintains a compact, polished form that is perfect for borders or container displays. Its beautifully variegated foliage offers refreshing visual interest year-round, providing a consistent, inspiring accent even through winter. Although the inconspicuous fruits appear later in the season, they are not a significant feature, leaving the spotlight on the gorgeous leaf patterns that make a bold statement in any landscape.

General Care

  • Sunlight: Thrives in full sun to partial shade; at least 6 hours of direct light daily enhances the vivid variegation of its leaves.
  • Watering: Water regularly after planting to establish a healthy root system; once established, occasional watering during extended dry periods
  • Mulching: Apply a 2–3 inch layer of mulch around the base to help regulate soil temperature and conserve moisture, keeping mulch slightly away from the shrub for optimal airflow.
  • Pruning: Lightly prune in late winter or early spring to maintain a neat, compact shape and encourage fresh, vibrant foliage.

Euonymus Gaiety adds a refined and inspiring accent to Michigan landscapes, delivering a beautiful, textural display of variegated color that remains attractive throughout the year.
