Scarlet Euonymus (Euonymus sachalinensis), also known as Asian Spindle Tree, is a deciduous shrub or small tree prized for its vivid scarlet fall foliage and striking ornamental fruit. Native to Japan, Korea, and Manchuria, this slow-growing plant begins upright and matures into a rounded, low-branched shrub or small tree reaching 8–15 feet tall with smooth gray bark.
In early spring, bright green foliage emerges, followed by small dark purple flowers in late spring. As autumn arrives, the leaves transform into brilliant crimson-pink to deep scarlet. Showy 1/2-inch fuchsia-pink capsules split open to reveal bright scarlet arils that hang from the branches well into winter, providing exceptional seasonal interest and attracting birds and wildlife.
This 400-seed pack is ideal for larger hedges, screens, restoration plantings, woodland gardens, or nursery propagation.
You will receive:
✔️ 400 Euonymus sachalinensis seeds
✔️ Deciduous shrub or small tree
