The Photinia Red Tip is a stunning evergreen shrub that brings year-round visual interest to your landscape with its spectacular color-changing foliage. In spring, new growth emerges in brilliant shades of bright red and bronze, creating a striking display that gradually matures to rich dark green by fall. This medium-sized shrub features a dense, compact growth habit that typically reaches 8-12 feet in height and 8-10 feet in width, making it an excellent choice for hedges, screens, mass plantings, accent features, or even container gardens. Thriving in full sun to partial shade, this adaptable plant performs best in dry, well-drained soil and is remarkably drought tolerant once its root system is established. Hardy in zones 7-11, the Photinia Red Tip requires regular watering during its establishment phase and occasional watering thereafter, except during drought conditions. Shearing is recommended to maintain your desired shape and encourage that vibrant red new growth. Please note that these are starter plants measuring less than 12 inches tall at the time of shipment, with images showing mature specimens of the species.
