    This plant is under a crabapple, but near the edge of the shade it casts. I don't remember it flowering, but maybe it takes a few years to flower, or possibly I'm just forgetting about the blooms. It is a low shrub.

    That does look a lot like it. I think it probably is that, although it hasn't developed a pinkish tone in winter.

    It doesn't have to be that exact variety, but one that looks a lot like it. Also, it might not turn pinkish unless you've got very low temps.

    I have some Euonymus just like yours. I'm almost certain they are 'Raulston's Gold' - very pretty plants. :stew1:

    Many years ago we had a shrub line of the Gold Euonymus and they were so pretty. But the GE get a fungus very easily...at least ours did! :(

    I have had mine for 1 1/2 years now and it has not had a problem with fungus, or anything else for that matter. Probably the fungus yours got doesn't occur in my area.

    That could very well be. I don't know what causes the fungus to start. :rolleyes:
