Noted for its spectacular fall foliage and very ornamental berries, Euonymus europaeus 'Red Cascade' (Spindle) is a large, vigorous, deciduous shrub that is invaluable in the fall and winter garden. Its foliage of scalloped, oval, dark green leaves turns to a deep, lustrous red in fall, making the whole plant glow with color. In late spring to early summer, a profusion of tiny, insignificant, greenish flowers appear before being replaced by masses of bright rose-pink fruits that mature during the fall. At this time, each fruit capsule splits open to reveal tangerine-coated seeds which hang on far into winter. They are attractive to some birds who enjoy them during the winter months. Adding a spectacular splash of color when it is most needed, 'Red Cascade' is a very fine garden plant
