Red Robin Everyone likes a bit of colour and Photinia Red Robin does not disappoint: a large, dense, evergreen shrub with glossy green and purple-red foliage. Makes an excellent specimen on its own but is most often planted as a hedge. The fresh growth can be anywhere between dark to bright red and can be a welcome sight in Winter and early Spring. Red Robin is evergreen and can be clipped into a neat hedge as low as 4 ft or left to grow tall. It is fast growing but for best results, it should be clipped back every year to produce a nice bushy habit. It will grow in all free draining soils, avoid extreme wind and coastal exposure. Holds the RHS award for garden merit.Site: Semi shelteredSoil: Any well-drained soilPosition: Full sun or partial shade, best colour in sunSeason of Interest: Year-round colourHardiness: Hardy to -12°CHeight: 15ft (5m) Spread: 15ft (5m)Hedging spacings: 18’’(45cm) apart for hedges up to 6ft.
