Description
Expect a spectacular color show in spring as new growth emerges a coppery to fiery red. Turning to a glossy dark green, ‘red robin’ is an excellent choice for borders, hedging, and privacy screening. Additional pruning may promote fresh flushes of red leaves in spring and summer, although possibly at the expense of flowers. Leaves are 3” to 4” long. Flowers are white and arrive in spring, nearly covering the leaves at peak bloom. This red tip photinia hybrid can be shaped into a small specimen tree. Somewhat drought tolerant once established and appreciates good air circulation. Grows to 8’ to 10’ high and 6’ to 8’ wide. Prefers well-drained soil. Provide full to part sun. Flowers in spring. Hardy to Zone 6/-5 degrees. Altman Plants White Red Tip Photinia Foundation/Hedge Shrub in 2.5-Quart Pot | 0881295
