Up for sale European Spindle Tree Euonymus europaeus 10 Seeds Euonymus europaeus, commonly called European spindletree, is a deciduous shrub or small tree that is native from Europe to western Asia. This is a shrub or a small tree with an irregular crown. Best ornamental features are its showy fall fruit and sometimes superb fall leaf color. It grows, often rapidly, to 12-20’ (less frequently to 30’) tall. Although slender in youth, it typically matures to a rounded form. Small, yellowish-green flowers (1/2” across) bloom in 3-5 flowered cymes from late April to June. Flowers are followed by fruits which are extremely showy. Pinkish-red dehiscent capsules split open in fall to reveal tiny seeds, each of which is encased in a fleshy orange aril. Seeds are attractive to birds. Ovate to oblong-lanceolate, crenate-serrate, glabrous, dull dark green leaves (to 3” long) turn variable shades of red to orange to purple in fall. Spindletree wood was once used to make spindles.
