Photinia Red Robin is an evergreen shrub known for its striking red foliage. The new growth on these plants is bright red and fades to a deep green as it matures. In summer, tiny frothy sprays of white flowers appear followed by red berries, that further enhance this garden favourite. It's best to trim these photinia red robins on a regular basis as it encourages them to bush out and thicken. You can prolong the display of red shoots by lightly pruning established shrubs when the initial colour starts to fade, which encourages a new flush of red shoots that can keep their vibrancy all summer.
They prefer full sun and are suitable to be grown in clay soil but do not like to sit in waterlogged soil for along period, not do they like dry soil or full shade.
This specimen, planted into a trough has been trained onto a sturdy wooden frame and measures 120cm H x 75cm W. It is ideal for screening off an area or planting along a fence or wall.
