Notes
'Red Cascade' spindle (Euonymus europaeus 'Red Cascade') is a shrub for borders, hedges, and low maintenance gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil of most types. It grows fast and can reach about 9 to 10 feet tall. Birds visit it, so it adds life to a mixed border.
Pairs well with Blue Arrow Rocky mountain juniper, Queen of Night tulip, and Kentucky bluegrass.
