Euonymus nanus
Also called Dwarf Burning Bush, Dwarf Euonymus, Dwarf Spindle
Euonymus nanus, the dwarf spindle tree, is a species of flowering plant in the family Celastraceae. It is native to the Black Sea region, Central Asia, Mongolia, and northern China, and it has been introduced to Germany. A deciduous or semi-evergreen shrub reaching 1 to 2 m (3 to 7 ft), it is adapted to cold, dry conditions, and is typically found in forests and scrublands high in the mountains. Available from commercial suppliers, its leaves are narrow and resemble those of rosemary.
