Euonymus lanceolatus, an evergreen shrub, inhabits broad-leaved
forests in hilly regions; branches extend, crawl on the ground, and
rise 30-70cm in height. The current and previous years' units are
green and smooth without ridges. Leaves are oblong, 10-15cm long,
tips pointed, somewhat thick, midveins prominent, with fine
serrations on margins. Leaf axils produce pendant flower stalks,
which bear one to six 6-10 mm in diameter, 5-petaled, black-purple
flowers. Bloom time: June-August. |
