PHOTINIA

Vibrant red foliage and super fast growth give Photinia glabra Super Red the edge as an outstanding choice for screening and hedges. Vigorous, upright growth is paired with a natural self-branching habit creating a perfectly bushy form with little to no pruning needed. ‘Super Red’ is so-called for its steady stream of vivid red new growth in spring and early summer. Add to that, its hardy nature, fast growth and ability to make excellent medium to tall hedges of up to 5m, and you can see why ‘Super Red' is among the best of screening plants. Tolerant of most soil types, light frost, windy, coastal or dry conditions, it is a versatile, low maintenance plant. ‘Super Red’ is also perfect in public landscaping and as a large feature shrub in the garden. Best placed in full sun or semi-shade and make sure to provide good drainage as Photinia will not tolerate waterlogged soil. Evergreen.
