Description
L’Euonymus fortunei ‘Emerald ’n’ Gold’ fait partie de ces petits arbustes fiables qui apportent de la vie au jardin toute l’année. Son feuillage persistant, panaché de jaune d’or, illumine les bordures, les rocailles un peu ombragées et le sol sous les arbustes. En hiver, il prend des reflets roses à rougeâtres. Facile à tailler et peu exigeant en termes de sol, ce fusain s'utilise aussi bien en couvre-sol qu'en buisson ou en grimpante.
L’Euonymus fortunei, appelé fusain de Fortune ou fusain rampant, appartient à la famille des Célastracées. Cette espèce botanique est originaire d’une vaste région d’Asie orientale, où elle pousse dans les bois, les fourrés et sur les pentes. Le cultivar ‘Emerald ’n’ Gold’ a été sélectionné aux États-Unis par Corliss Brothers, à Ipswich dans le Massachusetts, en 1963. Il a reçu l’Award of Garden Merit de la Royal Horticultural Society pour ses qualités ornementales et sa fiabilité au jardin. La plante forme en une dizaine d’années un buisson dense et étalé de 50 à 60 cm de hauteur pour 1 m d’envergure. Ses rameaux souples s’enracinent parfois au contact du sol. Guidés contre un muret, un treillage ou un autre support, ils peuvent s’élever davantage grâce à des petites racines adventives. Les feuilles persistantes, opposées et finement dentées, mesurent généralement 2 à 4 cm de long. Le centre de leur limbe est vert foncé, il est entouré d’une large bordure jaune vif à dorée, qui se colore plus ou moins sous l’effet du froid. Quelques petites fleurs verdâtres et discrètes peuvent apparaître en juin sur les plantes adultes ; la fructification est peu fréquente en culture. Ce fusain est rustique jusqu’à –20 °C en sol drainé, même si son feuillage peut être abîmé par des vents glacés. Cette plante intégralement toxique pour l'homme attire les oiseaux.
Ce fusain s’emploie surtout en couvre-sol, en bordure basse, sur un talus pas trop aride ou au pied d’arbustes. On peut aussi l'accueillir dans un grand bac. Vous pouvez facilement créer une petite mosaïque persistante en l'associant à l’Euonymus fortunei ‘Emerald Gaiety’, au Cotoneaster suecicus ‘Coral Beauty’ et au Lonicera pileata ‘Moss Green’. Il trouve aussi sa place sous un érable du Japon dans un jardin japonais, à condition que le sol ne soit pas trop sec. Résistant au vent et aux embruns, cet arbuste est aussi adapté aux jardins du littoral.

Planting and care
Euonymus fortunei ‘Emerald ’n’ Gold’ should be planted from September to November or from March to May, avoiding periods of frost and drought. To create a continuous groundcover, space the young plants 60 to 80 cm apart. Sun intensifies the golden colouring of the foliage, but partial shade is preferable in hot areas. Shade is tolerated, but the variegation will be less bright. Plant it in an ordinary, well-drained soil that remains slightly moist, whether acid, neutral or alkaline. It tolerates clay soils if they are not waterlogged and, once well established, withstands moderate drought. Water regularly during the first two summers. Scale insects and powdery mildew may occasionally affect it.

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.
