Is my euonymus dying?
1 Attachment(s)
I only planted this in April and it hasn't grown much at all. Now some of the leaves are turning brown which is a bit worrying for an evergreen shrub. Is a trip to the garden centre in order?

When the temp drops or the plant is under stress then you will get that coloration of the leaves. Makes it much more interesting in my opinion. David @ a rain free (at last) side of Swansea Bay |

Is a trip to the garden centre in order? We need the name. Are you sure yours is an evergreen variety ? Some euonymus are deciduous. Janet |

I agree with David (Hill). It's perfectly normal and even quite attractive. Certainly don't try and cut it out. Learn to love it. -- Spider. On high ground in SE London gardening on heavy clay |

Some euonymus are deciduous. Yes. I have two types in my garden - one is deciduous, the other changes colour when the seasons change. |
Can't remember the variety - I think it's Emerald Gaiety. I bought specifically because I wanted an evergreen for winter colour in my front garden.
Good to know it's not dead then. |
