Burning Bush – Euonymus alatus 120 Seeds | Hardy Hedge Shrub | Brilliant Red Fall Color Winged Euonymus | Formal Hedge or Specimen | Cold & Heat Tolerant

Grow your own Burning Bush (Euonymus alatus) — a dense, adaptable shrub prized for its spectacular fiery red fall foliage and distinctive corky “winged” stems that add winter interest.

This deciduous shrub forms a rounded, multi-branched habit and produces small yellow-green flowers in spring, followed by ornamental capsules that open to reveal bright orange-red seeds. In autumn, the foliage turns a dramatic, vivid red, making it one of the most reliable shrubs for bold fall color — even in warmer climates.

Burning Bush is extremely hardy and easy to grow. It tolerates cold winters, summer heat, wind, and a wide range of soil conditions (except poorly drained soils). It takes well to pruning and shearing, making it ideal for privacy hedges, foundation plantings, shrub borders, woodland gardens, mass plantings, and bonsai training.

This 120-seed pack is ideal for creating a uniform hedge line, large landscape planting, or growing multiple specimen shrubs for striking seasonal color.
