An extravagant gem

Your elegant Photinia originates from Italy and brings a touch of la dolce vita to your garden. This evergreen ornamental shrub captivates with its vibrant purplish-red foliage, which gradually fades to green. When planted in the ground, your ornamental tree is winter-hardy, but in the first few years, you should protect the roots from severe frost and provide winter protection. Your Photinia thrives best in consistently moist, well-drained, humus-rich garden soil. In a container, the Red Robin prefers a mixture of potting soil and rhododendron soil. Regular pruning encourages red new growth, but that's all you need to keep your ornamental tree happy. This winter-hardy plant, with its evergreen leaves and a maximum height of 350 cm, will add an Italian flair to your garden.
