| Dwarf nandina Euonymus fortunei Viburnum carlesii or similar, maybe one of its hybrids |
|
| OK, the second one look very much like the seedlings I have in my yard. I was just about to ask for help to identify it. I googled "Euonymus fortunei" and I am not sure this is it. By reading about Euonymus fortunei, I realized I may have them in my yard too. They are mostly low growing and some of them climbed up on a tree. This one I have is different. I got a broken off branch from a dense hedge planted next to mall parking lot. The mother plant was at least 6 feet tall. I was looking at hundreds of "English Laurel" picture online yesterday and some of them look just like the second pic and my seedlings too. So confusing. |

| I had Euonymus as foundation shrubs when I bought this property. Had them rippped out. They are murder to keep trimmed. They need next to nothing to grow and are relatively evergreen. But they had to go. |

| Not Euonymus fortunei. More likely Euonymus kiautschovicus 'Manhattan' - I think that's the right spelling. It's always good form to show the whole plant in addition to the closeups. Many people can ID the plant without the micro-view. |
