Description
The Euonymus fortunei 'Golden Harlequin' is a wonderful dwarf spindle bush, with a compact and very dense growth, remarkable for its evergreen leaves speckled with dark green, ivory white, and golden hues. This small bush, always neat and bright, is perfect for rockeries, containers, borders, low hedges, or as a foreground plant in a shrub bed. It is very tolerant of soil and exposure, although it does not tolerate dry conditions.
Native to Asia and northern China, the Euonymus fortunei is a ground-covering bush of the family Celastraceae, with a rather slow growth, perfectly hardy, and tolerant of limestone in the soil.
The variety 'Golden Harlequin' was selected in the Netherlands by Boomkwekerij Bolwijn vof. It is appreciated for its particularly compact, dense, and trailing or even climbing habit, as well as for the beautiful colouring of its foliage. At maturity, this slow-growing cultivar will reach about 30 cm (11.8 in) in all directions. The evergreen leaves, elliptical and 3 to 4 cm (1.2 to 1.6 in) long, with serrated edges, are pale green with ivory white centre, speckled with dark green and golden yellow. In spring, inconspicuous flowers in small greenish-white clusters appear on the current year's growth. They are followed by decorative but non-edible red berries, enjoyed by birds.
The Euonymus fortunei 'Golden Harlequin' grows in well-drained soil, in non-arid conditions, preferably semi-shaded. Pruning is unnecessary, it is better to pinch the young plants to encourage branching and only remove dead or diseased wood. It can be used in pots or containers on a terrace, in rockeries or as a border plant, and even to highlight the curve of a path or the steps of a staircase. It offers a good alternative to boxwood thanks to its good resistance to diseases. It is ideal for greening a wall without becoming uncontrollable. Pair it with other robust ground-covering plants, such as Waldsteinia ternata, Bergenia, creeping cotoneasters, or other varieties of variegated spindle bushes.
Tip: In case of drought, water to maintain beautiful foliage.

Planting and care
The Euonymus fortunei 'Golden Harlequin' is preferably planted in spring in any well-drained soil that remains moist, in a sunny or lightly shaded position, or even in shade in hot and very sunny regions. It tolerates the presence of limestone in the soil but is sensitive to arid conditions. Its hardiness is excellent. Pruning is not essential, but it allows the plant to branch out. Pinch out the young shoots to encourage branching and remove dead or diseased wood. Apply fertiliser twice a year, in early spring and autumn. In case of prolonged drought, water to maintain beautiful foliage.

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.
