PHOTINIA SERR. RED ROBIN CLT 55 CIRC. TR. 11 - 13 CM 1/2 STD SPALL. LEGNO SU STELO 100 X 120 CM
Photinia × fraseri 'Red Robin' is a popular evergreen grown for its striking flushes of bright red young foliage that mature to glossy green, providing year-round structure and colour. In spring, plants that are not clipped can produce flat clusters of small white flowers. It performs well in sun or light shade in fertile, moist but well-drained soil, and responds readily to pruning, making it ideal for training into neat, structural forms for screening and space-saving designs. A reliable, hardy choice for Irish gardens where a smart, architectural look is desired.
This tree has been trained to grow flat along a frame, creating a neat, structured shape that is ideal for screening or narrow spaces. Where supplied on a clear stem, the tree was grown to this stem height and then pruned to stop the trunk growing taller. The stem height will remain as supplied, with growth continuing from the trained framework above.
To help give a clear sense of scale, the stone wall shown in our photos measures approximately 265cm in height. We also use familiar garden tools as visual references: a digging fork (110cm tall) and a hand fork (30cm tall). These are included purely as size guides to help you better judge proportions when viewing the images.
