Euonymus Europaeus

Growing wild in a hedge at Cosmeston Lake, Penarth South Wales

A single little clump of berries on a Spindle Tree (Euonymus europaeus - European Spindle Tree) I found whilst tramping around the woods last week.

 

Looks nice on black - click on the image, or press 'L' on your keyboard.

Hmm.

 

I have been saying "... if you think about it" a lot lately, by the way.

 

Cotton: The yarn. The control of quality, my father's main concern. Time has passed, and my memories faded. I only remember my father's joy during the visits he made to his clients'mills where he shared his knowledge and skills with the workers he was training. I regularly went with him on my Summer holidays to get acquainted with the mills and help him with English and German language translation.

True spirals start small and widen in an increasing arc. The spindles here meet that definition as the curve at the top widens by more than half an inch over its height.

There actually is a Spindle City … it’s the nickname of Cohoes, N.Y., where massive textile mills harnessed the power of the Mohawk River at the site of a major waterfall. Those mills were spinning cotton, though, not silk, which was the business of this place in Maryland.

Luckily this tree at Westonbirt Arboretum was labelled and I took a shot of the label too. It's indigenous to Japan, China and Korea. I have never seen anything like it and the raindrops on it really brought it alive for me.

just because of the varied colours

Caused by the maple spindle gall mite, Vasates aceriscrumena. They don't usually harm the tree.

 

Thank you to everyone who visits, faves, and comments.

HMM to everybody. :-)

We live in apple country and it has been interesting to see the orchards slowly transform over the past few years to this new system of growing the trees. The Tall Spindle System is a combination of denser spacing between trees, dwarfing rootstock, minimal pruning at planting, branches tied down to induce fruiting and trellis support as the tree grows taller. It is supposed to give higher early and mature yields and be easier to harvest.

I love this bead. It reminds me of barnacles. Dreamy little spinner, too.
