The standard lilly pilly is a popular choice among New Zealand gardeners looking for a striking, formal feature plant with classic appeal. Grafted or trained into a lollipop shape, the standard lilly pilly is renowned for its dense evergreen foliage, flushes of glossy new red-bronze growth, and clusters of fluffy white flowers followed by edible pink to red berries. Whether you're creating a standout specimen in a garden bed, framing an entrance with matching pairs in pots, or adding structure to a formal landscape, the standard lilly pilly blends timeless elegance with low-maintenance versatility.

Eugenia uniflora, commonly known as the Surinam or Brazilian Cherry, is a small tree that features new foliage which emerges a bronze colour and ages to become dark green. The somewhat dense foliage is adorned with star-shaped, red fruits during summer. It typically grows to 6 m tall and 3.5 m wide, but can be trimmed as necessary. Eugenia uniflora is commonly used for hedging and screening, planted as a backdrop for smaller plants, grown as a specimen, added to a mixed planting, or maintained in a container.
