Dwarf spindle bush Green Rocket 140MM

Euonymus japonicus 'Green Rocket'

I am Dwarf spindle bush Green Rocket. My family originated from Japan.

Habit Shrub - Fast growing

Plant family Celastraceae

I am a beautiful dark green dwarf bush with a fast growth habit well suited to box and other hedging styles. I have a compact form with glossy, oval leaves. My new growth is a lime green colour creating great contrast. I have an upright habit and good natural form but am easily maintained as a formal hedge with a minimal amount of trimming. I perform well container grown to be appreciated in court yards, paved areas or in a traditional urn and other planters.

I am popular and will make you happy because...

My lush green form, fast growth, upright habit and response to pruning suits me to low hedges and screening
