Scarlet Euonymus – Euonymus sachalinensis Seeds | 30 Seeds | Brilliant Red Fall Color & Showy Winter Fruit

Scarlet Euonymus (Euonymus sachalinensis), also known as Asian Spindle Tree, is a deciduous shrub or small tree prized for its vivid fall color and striking ornamental fruit. Native to Japan, Korea, and Manchuria, this slow-growing plant begins upright when young and gradually develops into a wide, low-branched shrub or small tree reaching 8–15 feet tall.

In spring, bright green foliage emerges early and creates a fresh backdrop for small purple flowers in early summer. By autumn, leaves transform into brilliant crimson-pink to scarlet tones. Showy 1/2-inch fuchsia-pink capsules split open to reveal bright scarlet arils that dangle from branches well into winter — providing outstanding seasonal interest and attracting wildlife.

This 30-seed pack is ideal for gardeners seeking a unique specimen shrub, hedge, screen, espalier feature, or woodland accent with dramatic fall and winter appeal.

You will receive:
✔️ 30 Euonymus sachalinensis seeds
