The Silver King Euonymus is an excellent choice for topiaries in landscaping or containers with its unique color and texture. Lustrous green leaves with silvery margins give it a soft appearance. In lieu of shaping into a topiary, it is a great choice for espalier, or several can be planted together to form a low screen.
This euonymus is very adaptable and tolerates a variety of conditions. If left to grow naturally, it can reach 6 feet in height and 3 feet in width. Best suited to hardiness zones 6-9, it prefers partial to full sun.
Silver King Euonymus will be a standout and stunning addition to any garden, particularly those with an Asian/Zen style.
