Name That Plant!

Deciduous tree with pinkish-red fruits

9 years ago

This is a smallish (15') tree with multiple trunks and an erect habit. The fruits were the only thing really distinct about it, tbh. Missed the bloom cycle completely, so hopefully this is enough to get some ideas. Will post a follow up with a pic of the tree form. Thanks for your help!

I'd say a Euonymus as well. I'm not well acquainted with it but I know the wahoo (Euonymus atropurpurea) has pinkish pods as well. May wish to compare to that one as well.

Great! Thank you! I am leaning towards Euonymus europaeus because I do seem to recall seeing white flowers similar to those earlier in the season. At least I know I'm on the right track now. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
