Euonymus fortunei


I came across this evergreen shrub just outside Longford park, Chorlton, in a residential street mid-March. The plant presents yellow and green foliage throughout the year, offering a consistent visually appealing shrub - but lacking in seasonal diversity. This particular shrub was planted deliberately as an ornamental plant to bring softness to the harsh architectural surroundings. 
The shrub sits in an alignment of various other evergreen shrubs, to provide contrast of form and to contribute towards the ornamental setting. 

Eunonymum fortunei is tolerant to sun and shade, and thrive in well-drained soils.
