Most of the euonymus growing here in the US are shrubs or vines from Asia. We do have an American variety, U. americanus. It's common name is "hearts a'bustin" because of it's fruit with an orange shell and pink fruit inside that shows as the shell pops open. I've never seen a stem of this plant more than 1/4" in diameter. Most euonymus here are very susceptible to scale insects and require pesticides to control it.
There is an Asian variety, E. alatus(aka winger euomymus, burning bush) that grows here(invasive) that would probably get large enough to make a bow but I eradicate any I find before it has a chance to get to size.
