Description:
Photinia Red Robin is a popular evergreen shrub known for its vibrant red foliage and its versatility in garden landscapes. It features glossy, leathery leaves that emerge as bright red when they first unfurl, gradually maturing to a rich dark green as they age. The foliage provides year-round interest and creates a striking contrast against the red stems. Suitable for hedging, privacy screens, or as a feature plant. In spring, it produces small, creamy-white flowers that are followed by red berries, which add additional visual interest. Red Robin thrives in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. If hedging space 80-100cm apart. Also great for topiary. Grows to approx. 3m H x 1.5m W.
