Name: Euonymus fortunei ‘Wolong Ghost’
Zones: 4 – 9
Size: 8 to 10 inches tall, 18 to 24 inches wide
Conditions: Partial to full sun
Evergreen ground covers are nice to have so we don’t have to look at mulch in the winter and they make great cover for the wildlife.
The dark green, narrow foliage of Euonymus fortunei ‘Wolong Ghost’ is a very prostrate shrub creating a nice ground cover. ‘Wolong Ghost’ will take some sun, but also performs well in deep shade. It actually may perform at little too well; This wintercreeper is listed as an invasive exotic throughout much of the eastern United States and should be used with caution. Planting ‘Wolong Ghost’ in the sun may temper it’s aggressive habit.
