Euonymus americanus from Joanne in Fort Mill

Posted on |

Found while hiking a few weeks ago nearby

Hi Joanne,

these are the flowers of the native shrub Euonymus americanus, often called Hearts-a-bustin’-with-love because of the unusual fruits.  It is also called strawberry bush for the same reason.

Sincerely,

Dr. Steven Hill, Botanist, SCNPS
