Euonymus alatus, also known as Winged Euonymus or Burning Bush, is an adaptable deciduous shrub native to eastern Asia. Growing up to 8 feet tall, its stems are notable for the four corky ridges that curve lengthwise. The leathery, dark green leaves turn into a vibrant red shade in the fall, making it an alluring addition to any garden. It is a versatile and tolerant plant, making it ideal as a hedge or even as a small tree. Its small attractive flowers are greenish in color and bloom in the spring, followed by distinctive four-lobed pink, yellow, or orange capsules. Popular for its bright orange or pink fruit and colorful fall foliage, it has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. Known for its medicinal properties, it is used to promote menstruation, remove toxic materials, and kill insects or parasites in traditional Chinese medicine. However, it is important to note that it is an invasive species of woodlands in eastern North America, so its importation and sale are prohibited in some states.
