Overview
Euonymus japonicus ‘Pierrolino’ is a compact evergreen shrub prized for its bright variegated foliage. The glossy green leaves are edged and splashed with creamy white, creating a fresh, luminous appearance that brings year-round interest to the garden.
Its naturally neat, bushy habit makes it an excellent choice for the front of shrub borders, courtyard gardens and patio containers. It also lends itself well to low hedging and formal planting, responding well to light clipping while maintaining its dense shape.

Growing Guide
Position
Grow in full sun or partial shade. A bright position helps maintain the strongest variegation, although the plant also performs well in light shade.
Soil
Plant in fertile, well-drained soil. It is adaptable to a range of soil types provided they do not remain waterlogged.
Watering
Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a healthy root system. Once established, water during prolonged dry spells, with container-grown plants requiring more frequent attention.
Pruning
Trim lightly in late spring or summer to maintain a neat shape or encourage denser growth. Remove any plain green shoots if they appear to preserve the variegated foliage.
