Euonymus jap. Gold Queen 2 Ltr pot

Euonymus japonicus ‘Gold Queen’ is an evergreen, variegated Japanese spindle valued for its bold green-and-gold foliage and naturally dense, upright habit. A reliable choice for Irish gardens, it grows best in full sun or light shade (variegation is brightest with good light) and in any well-drained, reasonably fertile soil, including chalk. Ideal for low, colourful hedging, mixed borders, and coastal planting; clip lightly as needed to keep a neat outline.

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
