Hi, would anyone be able to identify this evergreen? I have one in my garden and I'd like to buy another one. In real life, it's more of green colour. Thank you

It's a euonymous. Probably the one called 'emerald and gold'. They're lovely!

Thank you. It looks lovely all year round. It's stands up well to the heat waves we have had and the rain we have. It needs a little trim every so often. It's very easy to look after.

Yes they're pretty easy plants and bright and cheerful. I'm not sure I've told you the right one, there's a dwarf euonymus that's that colour and actually I think it's that one rather than 'emerald and gold' which is an euonymus fortunei. I had a look online but I couldn't find it (your one). But it's defo some kind of euonymus, if you go and look at them at a garden centre that sells a few different ones you should be able to find it or you might find you'd like a different one to complement it. They are all nice imho. 🙂

It's on the small size i suppose. It's currently about the size of a beach ball. I tend not to let it get much bigger. It gets a trim then! It's low to the ground. I will see what I find when I go shopping.
