1. Soil

Euonymus is highly adaptable to soil and can grow in neutral, acidic and calcareous soils.

2. Watering

Euonymus is relatively drought-tolerant, so just keep the soil moist; do not water when it is not dry, and slightly dry is better than slightly wet. During the spring and summer growing season, the plant should be watered appropriately, which helps it flower and bear fruit; in autumn watering should be reduced, and it is best to let the soil be slightly dry; during the winter dormant period, water once every five to seven days.

3. Fertilizing

Euonymus has a relatively high demand for fertilizer. During the plant's growing season, apply cake fertilizer water once every two weeks, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer; too much nitrogen fertilizer will cause leggy growth; after autumn, fertilize less or not at all; in winter, well-rotted cake fertilizer can be added to the soil as a base fertilizer.

4. Light

Euonymus likes to grow in places with light, so the plant can be placed in a sunny, well-ventilated spot. In the hot summer, appropriate shading should be provided to prevent the plant from being exposed to the scorching sun.
