About This Plant
Euonymus japonicus 'Paloma Blanca' (Japanese Euonymus), 'Paloma Blanca', is valued for its garden character and seasonal interest in PNW landscapes.
Euonymus species range from evergreen (E. japonicus, E. fortunei) to deciduous (E. alatus / Burning Bush) with brilliant red fall color. Versatile shrubs for hedging, foundation plantings, and groundcover.
Full sun to part shade suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained soil. Hardy USDA Zone 5 to 9. Watch for euonymus scale (a serious pest), powdery mildew, and crown gall. INVASIVE WATCH: E. alatus and E. fortunei are on invasive lists in much of the eastern US , less aggressive in PNW but worth siting carefully.
For a Pacific Northwest native shrub of similar character, consider Mahonia aquifolium (Tall Oregon Grape, Oregon state flower), Philadelphus lewisii (Mock Orange), or Holodiscus discolor (Oceanspray) , all support native pollinators and birds.
