Photinia 'Red Robin'

They soon get going don't they.But, they respond ok to cutting back as well, so a great shrub!

Lovely Shirley, they light up the garden......

Paul, our neighbour has HUGE Photinias in his front garden ... it's a wonder he gets down the path!

They also block out those bloomin' security lights on the back of houses too!

One of my garden favourites :o)

Very popular shrubs around these parts Amy ... what you might call 'low-maintenance'!

No scorch at all! Mine are all black at the new growth. They will be fine, but looks very unsightly. Yours looks amazing!

Aha, look closer at the bottom set of leaves, Karen and you will see some critter has nibbled at one of them ... and there's a hole in the set above those ... :o(

Beautiful, who ever said red and green should 'nair be seen' should take a look at this plant, mine also looking to be changing just now, lovely jubbly. :O)

Yes Shirley, mine all have that too!

Poor old OH, he cannot see the red due to his colour blindness. He says it just looks a different shade of green ... :o(

Lol, Karen!

It looks so healthy and a lovely sheen to the leaves..I hope mine looks as good when it gets going..new growth,so it's doing ok..my 'little Red Robin' has black spotting on the green leave though..I think I might cut them off...

Sandra - take a look on the RHS site at Photinia problems and you may find it's Photinia leaf spot - a sprinkling of Growmore may help ... :o)

Thanks Shirley,will do..I meant to buy some at the weekend,but forgot..duh ! :o)

Welcome to my world!!!

Great minds,and all that ! Lol.

one of my most favourite shrubs

I wish I'd bought the 'Pink Marble' variety I saw in the GC on Monday ... must return next week and buy one!
