description for "Perennials: Euonymus fortunei 'Harlequin'"
'Harlequin' Euonymus is a dwarf evergreen, creeping shrub with green and white variegated foliage often touched with pink, especially in fall and winter. Excellent for edging, erosion control on banks and slopes and pretty enough for decorative containers. Does well in part shade and well-drained soil. It is adaptable to more sun, but runs the risk of sun-burn in extreme heat. Grow to 6-12 inches with a spread of 12-18 inches. Zones 5-8. Edited by M.Tate.
