Complete Product Information for Common Spindle (Euonymus europaeus) Pack of 12 Cell Grown 20-40cm
This RHS Premium Cell Grown Common Spindle or Skewerwood (Euonymus europeaus) is a deciduous upright shrub or small tree which can grow to about 6m.

It will produces inconspicuous flowers which are followed in the autumn by pink or red fruits that will split open to reveal large orange seeds.

The small, hermaphrodite and inconspicuous yellow-green flowers are produced in late spring and grow in cymes of 3-8 together. Followed by capsular fruits ripening in autumn. They are red to pink or pink in colour and approximately 1 to 1.5cm wide. When they ripen, the four lobes split open to reveal the orange seeds.

Both leaves and fruits are poisonous to humans

The plants come with their root systems intact, whereas bare root plants can lose the tiny fine feeding roots and root hairs when they are lifted. This means that they will become more established quicker than bare root. They can also be planted into warm soils when roots are active, outside the dormant period. Whereas the bare root season ends between April to September, September, October, March April and May are ideal months for planting cell grown plants. In fact, unlike bare root, you can plant cell grown plants throughout the year as long as the roots are kept moist.

That is why 60% of the world`s forestry trees are now cell grown!
