Description
The Euonymus fortunei 'Goldy' is a very pretty variety of creeping spindle, forming a compact bush with its bright golden foliage. An evergreen shrub that adds colour to any rockery, border, or terrace, even during winter. It thrives in light shade, ordinary soil, and even limestone as long as it's kept moist.
Native to Asia and northern China, Euonymus fortunei is a slow-growing ground cover shrub in the family Celastraceae, perfectly hardy and tolerant of limestone in the soil.
'Goldy' is a recent variety, appreciated for its compact habit and modest size, as well as for its particularly bright foliage. At maturity, this slow-growing cultivar will reach a height of about 50 cm (19.7 in) with a minimum spread of 50 cm (19.7 in). It develops flexible shoots that can be easily trained and have the ability to cling to their support thanks to climbing roots. The evergreen, elliptical leaves, 3 to 4 cm (1.2 to 1.6 in) long, serrated, are golden yellow, gradually turning green with age. In spring, insignificant flowering occurs on the current year's shoots in the form of small clusters of white-greenish flowers. They give way to decorative but non-edible red berries, appreciated by birds.
Euonymus fortunei 'Goldy' is ideal for creating the permanent structure of low borders and particularly contributes to the decoration of the terrace. Its golden foliage enhances its purple blooms and is perfect in partially shaded areas of the garden. It grows in any well-drained soil and tolerates salt spray and wind very well. It can be used in pots or containers on a terrace, in a rockery or as a border plant, and even to highlight the curve of a path or the steps of a staircase, or to cover the slope of a retaining wall. It is ideal for greening a low wall, without becoming uncontrollable. Pair it with other sturdy ground cover plants such as Walsteinia ternata, Bergenia, creeping cotoneasters, or other varieties of variegated creeping spindles. This variety tolerates pruning very well.
Tip: In case of 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.
