Scarlet Euonymus (Euonymus sachalinensis), also known as Asian Spindle Tree, is a deciduous shrub or small tree admired for its vibrant 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, fresh bright green foliage emerges. Small dark purple flowers appear in late spring and are followed by eye-catching 1/2-inch fuchsia-pink capsules. In autumn, the foliage turns brilliant crimson-pink to deep scarlet, while the capsules split open to reveal bright scarlet seeds (arils) that dangle from branches well into winter. The fruit is highly attractive to birds and provides extended seasonal interest.
This 800-seed pack is ideal for large hedges, screens, reforestation projects, wildlife plantings, or nursery production.
