Eunonymus shrubs


Question
I have several varities of eunonymus shrubs and all grow towards the house.  Why?  Thanks.

Answer
Georgia Rose,
I am not sure that I understand the question fully. Am I to assume that the euonymus' are only growing towards the house and not away from it? The only reason that I could think of would be that the house is reflecting a larger amount of light than they are recieving on the opposite side and the plants are growing towards it, as most plants would. This is a process know as phototropism.
Another reason would be if the plants have been continually pruned back on one side, leaving only the house side healthy enough to put out new growth.
I hope this helped.
Good luck.
