Euonymus fortunei 'Minimus' - Compact Evergreen Ground Cover
The Euonymus fortunei 'Minimus' is an attractive, compact ground cover plant featuring dense green foliage that transforms into beautiful yellow to golden hues in the fall. This low-growing evergreen shrub reaches heights of 10-25cm, making it ideal for filling difficult shady areas where other plants struggle to thrive.
Key Features
This versatile plant excels in multiple garden applications. Its trailing-rooting growth habit allows stems to spread horizontally, rooting where they contact soil and creating dense coverage over time. The dainty, dark green leaves remain attractive year-round, providing visual interest even during winter months when many other plants go dormant.
'Minimus' thrives in both full sun and full shade conditions, adapting well to various light exposures. This adaptability makes it perfect for challenging garden spots including rock gardens, gravel areas, borders, and container plantings. The plant's strong growth and naturally compact form require minimal maintenance once established.
Garden Applications
Use this evergreen ground cover to create dense mats in shaded borders, cascade over container edges, or fill spaces between pavers and stones. Its slow to moderate growth rate provides reliable coverage without aggressive spreading. The plant's fibrous root system helps prevent soil erosion on slopes and hillsides while suppressing weed growth through dense foliage coverage.
Winter-hardy and disease-resistant, 'Minimus' withstands harsh conditions while maintaining its decorative appeal. The fall color transformation from green to golden-yellow adds seasonal interest, making this ground cover valuable throughout all four seasons.
