The Red Tip Photinia is a premier choice for commercial landscaping and wholesale distribution. Renowned for its dramatic seasonal color transitions, this hardy evergreen produces brilliant fire-red new growth that matures into a deep, glossy emerald green. Its rapid growth rate and dense foliage make it the industry standard for living privacy screens, hedges, and ornamental topiary.
The primary appeal of the Red Tip Photinia lies in its vibrant red shoots that emerge in early spring and following every pruning cycle. This creates a "multi-tonal" hedge effect that is highly sought after for residential developments and public parks. In late spring, the shrub produces clusters of small, delicate white flowers, adding further aesthetic interest.
Thanks to its vigorous growth habit—often gaining 1 to 3 feet per year—this shrub is a cost-effective solution for large-scale privacy screening. Its dense branching structure provides excellent windbreak capabilities and effective noise reduction, making it a functional asset for urban planning and highway landscaping projects.
Our export-grade Photinia stock is cultivated under strict nursery standards to ensure vigorous root systems and disease resistance. They are prepared for long-distance transport with professional root-balling or containerization, ensuring high survival rates upon arrival at international destinations.
Light: Performs best in full sun to partial shade; full sun yields the most intense red coloration.
Soil: Highly adaptable to most soil types, provided there is adequate drainage.
Hardiness: Resilient and cold-hardy, suitable for a wide range of temperate climates.
Pruning: Highly tolerant of heavy shearing. Regular trimming encourages continuous "red tip" flushes throughout the growing season.
Privacy Hedges: The preferred species for tall, dense boundary walls.
Specimen Planting: Can be trained into a small multi-trunk tree for focal points.
Topiary: Easily shaped into globes, squares, or cones for formal garden designs.
Red Tip Photinia has its origins in Asia and has been widely cultivated for its ornamental value. It offers environmental benefits by improving air quality and providing habitat for small wildlife. For care, it thrives in well - drained soil and full to partial sunlight; regular pruning helps maintain its shape and promote new red growth. Beyond landscaping, it can be used in privacy screens and urban greening projects. Moreover, it is drought - tolerant once established, has good resistance to pests and diseases, and its evergreen nature makes it a versatile choice for enhancing various outdoor spaces.
