Syzygium australe 140mm pot
Also known as Lilly Pilly, this fast-growing Australian native is well-suited to most regions across Australia. This stunning variety features a slightly weeping habit and offers beautiful red and pink new growth.
Its large, glossy leaves mature to a rich deep green and in the warmer month large, fluffy, pink powder-puff flowers are produced followed by eye-catching edible pink berries that are perfect for making jams and jellies, giving this tree year-round appeal.
With its naturally dense, compact growth, it’s perfect for hedging and topiary, and doesn’t require pruning unless a specific size or shape is desired.
This hardy and versatile shrub thrives in a range of soil types and climates and benefits from regular watering during dry spells. It also tolerates light frost and drought once established.
Ideal as an ornamental tree, its dense foliage also makes it perfect for hedging, screens and topiary or as a beautiful feature tree. Grows up to 2m W x 3m H.
Plant in full sun or light shade, in free draining soil. Mulch and water regularly until the plant is established, typically within 12 weeks.
