About this plant

‘Red Robin’ photinia stands out for its bright red new leaves, which gradually mature to glossy green.

Regular clipping helps it develop into a dense, upright shrub with a neat outline, while its evergreen foliage provides cover throughout the year.

Best used for

Plant as a colourful evergreen hedge or a clipped focal shrub.

Give the plant enough space and light to show its natural form.

Growth & mature size

Growth per year 25–45 cm per year Medium growth
Expected mature size 2–4 m high / 2–4 m wide

Expect around 25–45 cm of new growth per year after establishment in good conditions. At maturity it typically reaches 2–4 m in height and 2–4 m in width. Allow room for a dense, upright shrub when clipped; soil, water, exposure and pruning all influence its final outline.

How to care

Plant in fertile, well-drained soil. Water deeply through the first growing seasons and during prolonged dry spells later on. Top-dress with mature compost once a year in spring, keeping it clear of the stems. Trim lightly after the main spring growth to maintain the desired outline and encourage fresh shoots.
