A NOVELTY 
Winged or Cork-Barked Burning Bush 
Euonymus alatus 
A shrub with square branches. You will wonder at the thought, but there is such a shrub. 
It is Cole’s Winged Euonymus. The corners of the branches are slightly sharpened to form 
the “wings” from which the plant takes its name. Another marvelous feature is the brilliant fall 
coloring of the leaves, which are a delight to the eye until winter, when the picturesque and rugged 
beauty of Cole’s Winged Euonymus completes a full year of enjoyment of its splendor and 
fills you with the satisfaction of knowing that you have made a good investment. Cole’s Winged
