Introduce a captivating touch of nature to your garden with Euonymus phellomanus, commonly known as Cork Spindle Tree. Originating from the diverse landscapes of China, this remarkable deciduous shrub offers more than just aesthetic appeal. Growing to an impressive height of 6-13 ft with a spread of 8 ft, its distinguishing feature is the striking corky "wings" adorning its branches, setting it apart from its close relative, Euonymus alatus.

During May, E. phellomanus unveils subtle yellow-green flowers, which culminate in the vibrant display of rich pink four-lobed fruits in autumn. These fruits, sometimes splitting open, reveal vivid orange seeds encased in a deep red aril, adding further seasonal interest. Its robust nature adapts well to varied conditions, thriving in both moist and dry soils with full or partial sunlight.

With the prestigious Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit to its name, this ornamental shrub is not only a testament to longevity and beauty but also an effortless addition to your garden, tolerating various soil types and light conditions. Its gloriously winged twigs, accompanied by lush, green, veined leaves, provide an enchanting spectacle throughout the year. Enhance your garden's appeal with the resilient and unique charm of Cork Spindle Tree.
