Photinia x fraseri ‘Red Robin’ – Standard tree 6-8cm girth
At King & Co we have no hesitation in ranking the Photinia Red Robin as our number 1 screening tree. Order Photinia Red Robin Screening trees today!
These shallow rooted, fast-growing screening trees have a clear stem and a dense head of foliage. This foliage sits above a standard 6ft fence to create a stilted hedge.
This raised hedge is ideal for screening unsightly views from your property e.g. neighbours windows, satellite dishes, extensions.
We recommend planting the trees 1.2-1.5m apart to form an uninterrupted screen.
Photinia Red Robin bears young, serrated foliage that emerges red in spring. An abundance of white flowers also appear in April/May.
As the young foliage matures, it gradually hardens to a glossy green.
These vibrant colours enhance gardens and boundaries in the spring, summer and winter months.
