Euonymus japonicus 'White Spire' carries dark green leaves with crisp white margins on an upright, fast-thickening frame. It is the quicker of the two variegated Japanese spindles, which makes it the one to choose when you want a screen rather than a slow ornamental hedge.
Why it works in cooler northern European gardens
- Fast to fill — noticeably quicker than most evergreen hedging, so you get a dense line sooner.
- Upright habit — it grows narrow, which suits a boundary where you cannot give up much width.
- Disease resistant — it shrugs off the problems that trouble box, making it a sound box-blight alternative.
- Sun or shade — the variegation holds in both.
- Year-round structure — the flowers are insignificant; the foliage is the point, and it is there every month.
