Product information

This dwarf photinia catches the eye with its striking new foliage. Young leaves emerge a bold red, maturing to dark green. White flowers appear in clusters during spring. The colour contrast keeps it interesting year round at our nursery.

Photinia ‘Little Red Robin’ stays small and tidy. It reaches about 1m tall and wide. Grows well in fertile, well-drained soil. Prefers full sun to partial shade. We’ve seen it thrive on our Thurning grounds in various spots.

Prune lightly after flowering to shape. It suits small gardens, low hedges or containers. Reliable performer in UK conditions. Plant in a sunny border for reliable red flushes each spring.
