Japanese Spindle Often used for coastal hedging, Euonymus japonicus is an evergreen large shrub or small tree with a dense, upright habit. Glossy, oval, deep green leaves with serrated margins. Inconspicuous greenish-white flowers, with a slight vinegar scent, appear in late spring, and are followed in autumn by deep pink fruits which split to reveal orange seeds.
