Photinia x Fraseri Pink Marble - Red robin
The foliage of Photinia Pink Marble is extraordinary. Displaying FOUR colours, this Photinia has very special variegated foliage displaying green, cream, pink and young red shoots at the same time. There is no other Photinia like it, which is sure to make it a winner for those gardeners seeking something a little different from the regular Red Robin variety. Evergreen Photinias are always very popular and this stunning one with stunning foliage will really brighten up the garden.
Photinia 'Red Robin' (Photinia x fraseri ‘Red Robin’) makes a lovely evergreen tree, holding on to its large, leathery, elliptical leaves all year round, with brilliant red new growth in spring. It has a looser, less formal effect than trees with smaller leaves but works well in smaller gardens. A single tree offers year-round sculptural interest and provides a habitat for birds and invertebrates.
Key Features:
- Flowers: Large clumps of small white flowers form in early spring
- Foliage: New growth emerges a vibrant red, which gradually fades to a green leaf with cream/pink marbling through it, each leaf looking slightly different. Foliage is evergreen so will remain year round
- Height & Spread: Will stay mostly the same size
- Growth Habit: Large full rounded head on top of a strong stem
- Best Placement: Perfect as a specimen in a pot, or in a garden bed. Can also be used for privacy
- Care Requirements: Low maintenance; thrives in full sun/partial shade with fertile moist but well-drained soil
A beautiful specimen that would make a lovely feature in a garden while also providing coverage for wildlife.
