I've been buying plants for years. Never disappointed. They've all started off without any issues. Some arrived quite small. I wasn't reassured, and yet the young plant got off to a good start.

Description
Euonymus europaeus 'Red Cascade' is a variety of European spindle. Its abundant fruiting causes the branches to arch in late summer and much of the winter. The foliage takes on a very intense red colour at the first signs of cool temperatures, making the bush particularly remarkable and ornamental. This deciduous bush is ideal for hedges, borders, or as a standalone plant to admire its unique fruiting characteristics.
Euonymus europaeus is a very common species belonging to the celastraceae family. This already very elegant natural species has given rise to some highly appreciated horticultural varieties in gardens. 'Red Cascade' has an upright habit and, when fully grown, reaches a height of 3m (9 to 10ft) and a spread of 2m (6 to 7ft). Its foliage is medium green in summer, consisting of elongated oval leaves. These leaves turn intense red-purple before falling, becoming messengers of winter. A spring flowering in April, with white-green flowers, gives way to bright red-pink fruits in late summer, contrasting with its branches and green foliage. When opened, the fruit shells reveal bright orange seeds. This mix of colours will brighten up your winter with warm hues and attract birds that feed on these colourful fruits. It is the abundant fruiting that causes the large branches of the bush to bend, and the particularly intense colour of the foliage that earned it the name 'Red Cascade'.
Perfectly hardy, Euonymus 'Red Cascade' thrives in full sun exposure, or in partial shade. It prefers a humus-bearing, ordinary, moist soil. It is a low-maintenance shrub.
It can be planted in a hedgerow, associated with hawthorns or strawberry trees that will highlight its fruiting during the winter, or in borders or as a standalone plant.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
