Euonymus 'Harlequin' Patio Tree

Euonymus Harlequin - also known as spindle tree - grows well in pots and containers and is perfect for brightening up patios, driveways and terraces, as well as flanking entrances. The timeless lollipop stem shape allows the foliage to shine, creating an attractive focal point.

Euonymus is often grown as evergreen shrubs in a garden border. However, trained into a patio tree shape, it makes an excellent addition to any garden. Patio trees provide height and structure to an outdoor space, enhancing garden design and decorating areas of paving or decking.

This Harlequin cultivar features a tall single stem trunk with a mound of foliage at the top. The leathery oval-to-oblong leaves are in variegated shades of green and cream, and flushed pink in autumn and winter.

This is a hardy patio tree, however, you may wish to provide additional insulation around the plant pot to protect the roots against winter frost damage. Euonymus Harlequin thrives in moist, well-draining soil and is happy in most soil types. Like all plants, pot-grown specimens do need to be watered more frequently. Position the tree in partial shade or full sun to bring out the colour of the leaves.
