Botanical Name: Photinia Robusta 500mm Pot
Common Name: Photinia Robusta / Red Tip Photinia
Average Height (from the top of the pot): 1400mm
Photinia Robusta is a popular evergreen hedging and screening plant loved for its strong growth, glossy foliage and beautiful red new growth. It is an excellent choice for creating privacy, boundary hedges, driveway planting and garden screening around Sydney homes.
The 500mm pot size is an advanced option, giving customers a larger and more established plant with strong instant impact compared to smaller Photinia plants. Once planted, Photinia Robusta can grow into a dense, colourful hedge with regular trimming and care.
Photinia Robusta is especially popular because the fresh new foliage emerges bright red before maturing to deep glossy green, giving the hedge seasonal colour while still providing year-round evergreen structure.

- Advanced Photinia Robusta in 500mm pot
- Popular evergreen hedging plant
- Bright red new growth
- Glossy green mature foliage
- Fast-growing screening plant

Plant Apart:
