Euonymus jap. 'Paloma Blanca' 30-35 cm.

Euonymus japonicus ‘Paloma Blanca’ is a compact, upright, evergreen shrub prized for its striking new growth: creamy white shoots in spring that mature to rich green, giving long-lasting, architectural contrast in borders or containers. It forms a neat, columnar shape with slow growth, making it well suited to small gardens, front-of-border structure, low informal hedging and year-round foliage interest in Irish gardens. Grow in sun or light shade in moist but well-drained, moderately fertile soil; the small, greenish flowers are inconspicuous and typically appear in late spring to early summer. Hardy across most Irish regions (RHS H5).

To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
