An easy one

I took a cutting from something that was growing through my mums fence..as you do :wink:
I`m sure its as common as muck but the missus thought it was quite a nice looking plant/bush/shrub or whatever it is :wink:
I`m sure it produced something which looked similar to fluffy downy feathers in the nodes too...very strange.

 

Is that Privet? Or Euonymus?

 

I think euonymus.

 

Euonymus europaeus I think.

 

Thanks all,
Its good to know what its called and how big its likely to get. I didn`t see the whole plant as theres a 6ft lapboard fence and one branch had squeezed through.
I`m really glad its not a privet Aaron, it wouldn`t have been worth the effort to root it :wink:

 

I thought Euoymus Japonica Aureus or Medio Picta ,can grow to a large shrub 6/8ft

 

Thats the one strongy, reverts to green very easily, if its what I'm thinking of.

 

I think thats the kiddie, strongy,
If i remember correctly the leaves did begin with a striking yellow on the leaf edges too.
I rooted it over winter so it didn`t get much in the way of light and it lost the edge pattern in favour of the central stripes.
Hopefully it`ll revert back now we have a bit of sun :wink:

 

It does revert badly, I grow about 30/40 a year for the Parks, the cuttings come from my mum's garden as she has one 6ft high and regularly wants it cut back, unfortunately a lot of it is green so I take the variegated bits.:D
Should get quite a lot of growth this year Hex.
