Euonymus alatus - B5117
€390.00
VAT included
Native to East Asia, Euonymus alatus, commonly known as the Burning Bush or Winged Spindle, is highly valued in bonsai for its compact growth, the unique corky “wings” on its branches, and especially its striking autumn colour, when the foliage turns a vivid, fiery red. Its leaves are small, oval, and dark green in spring and summer, providing great ornamental appeal.
Sunlight: Prefers full sun for the best autumn colour but tolerates partial shade.
Watering: Water regularly, keeping the soil slightly moist. Avoid waterlogging, as it can cause root issues.
Humidity: Adapts well to various humidity levels but benefits from occasional misting in dry environments.
Pruning: Structural pruning should be done in late winter. During the growing season, pinch back new shoots to maintain a compact form and encourage ramification.
Fertilization: Feed in spring and summer with a balanced fertiliser. Reduce feeding in late summer.
Repotting: Repot every 2–3 years, preferably in spring, using a well-draining substrate.
Flowering and Fruiting: Produces small greenish-yellow flowers in late spring, followed by pink capsules that open to reveal bright orange seeds. In bonsai, its greatest ornamental value lies in its spectacular autumn foliage.
