    At least a couple of these don't look like the right species names are being given.

    We only photographed Euonymus planipes before. Neither of us posted it. Here's a photo.

    Can you, please, give me proper names or advice. I had these names from different sources having doubts myself about one with red hairy fruits. Tag says EUONYMUS ssp DJHC, but there is no such sp in collection in this area, only Euonymus fortunei.

    Here are more photos of the plant tagged Euonymus fortunei var. radicans,with open fruits, near the Reception Centre, growing up to the boardwalk. Andy Hill told us that these mature leaves look different from the juvenile ones (not that I've ever knowingly seen those).

    The ID of this has been called into question in previous posts in this thread.
