Photinia ‘Red Robin’ is one of the most popular evergreen shrubs for colourful hedging and screening, supplied as an impressive XL approximately 4–5ft tall established plant in a substantial 7.5 litre pot. At this excellent size, these are well-developed nursery plants providing immediate height, structure and colour, making them perfect for instant gardening and faster hedge establishment.
‘Red Robin’ is famous for its spectacular bright red new foliage, which gradually matures to glossy deep green. Regular trimming encourages further flushes of vivid red growth throughout the growing season, creating a colourful evergreen display while providing valuable year-round screening and structure.
At approximately 4–5ft tall when supplied, these XL plants offer considerably more immediate impact than smaller young Photinia. They are ideal for privacy screening, evergreen hedging, garden boundaries or individual feature planting. When creating a hedge, plant at approximately 1–2 plants per metre, depending on the density and speed of coverage required.
