Variegated Wintercreeper (Euonymus fortunei)
설명
The plant in the photo appears to be a variegated wintercreeper, Euonymus fortunei, a versatile evergreen climber often grown as a wall climbing vine or groundcover. The most distinctive feature is its leaves: simple, opposite, and glossy, typically 2 to 3 inches long, with a striking coloration pattern. In this cultivar, the leaves have a dark green center framed by a broad, irregular margin of creamy white or pale yellow. The variegation is not perfectly uniform on every leaf, which gives the plant a lively, mottled look. The leaf shape is oval to oblong with a pointed tip and a slightly serrated edge, though the margin is more smooth than deeply toothed. Stems are slender and woody, and the plant climbs or sprawls by producing adventitious roots that grip onto surfaces like wooden fences, brick, or soil. Because it is evergreen, the foliage remains on the plant year-round, providing color even during winter months when many other plants are dormant.
