This section is from the book "Garden Trees and Shrubs", by Walter P. Wright. Also available from Amazon: Garden Trees And Shrubs Illustrated In Colour.
See Chapters 9., 16., and 21. The forms of japonicus, such as yellow-margined, gold-variegated and silver-variegated, also radicans variegatus and radicans Silver Gem, are beautiful evergreens. The Japanese set are splendid for leaf-colour all the year round and are very suitable for the seaside. The forms of radicans are suitable for edgings. Europaeus, the white-flowered Spindle Tree, is deciduous: angustifolia, fructu-coccinea and fructu-alba are forms of it. Americanus, atropurpureus, latifolius and verrucosus are also deciduous: but it should be noted that there is a form of the evergreen japonicus called latifolius, and sub-forms of it are offered in the catalogues. Ordinary soil suits the Euony muses.
See Section A.
Although sometimes listed as hardy, these are best kept in the greenhouse. Latifolia variegata is very popular as a pot plant.
See Olearia. Eurybia Gunniana and Olearia Gunnii are the same.
See Chapter 16.
