Looking for superior hedging performance or something more compact? Explore Photinia 'Super Hedge' for denser growth in challenging locations, or the dwarf Photinia Little Red Robin (Little Red Robin) for pots, borders, or low hedges.

Planting and Caring for Red Robin Photinia

Plant your Red Robin Photinia in well-drained soil with good sun exposure for the brightest red colour. Space plants about 80cm-1m apart for a lush hedge. Regular trimming in spring and summer encourages vibrant new foliage and keeps your hedge neat. Mulch well to conserve moisture and suppress weeds during establishment.

Feed annually with a general-purpose fertiliser, and ensure young plants stay watered during dry spells. Photinia is not only tolerant of coastal sites and wind but will also shrug off occasional frosts, making it a reliable choice across the country.
