An outstanding new variety, similar to Photinia Red Robin, but with upright, finely toothed, evergreen foliage. The young shoots and leaves are coppery-red then gradually take on an unusual chocolate shade before turning dark green. All new shoots and leaves throughout the season are coppery-red The colours of this variety are more subtle than the very showy Red Robin. Delicate panicles of white flowers appear in late spring contrasting well against the foliage. Naturally a dense, well branched plant so is ideal for hedging or to be grown as a specimen plant. Plant in any reasonable well drained soil in sun or partial shade and protect from cold winds until established.

HEDGE Trim in spring. For hedges 1.8m (6ft). Plant 60 - 90cm (2 - 3ft) apart.

SHRUB 2.4 x 1.8m (8 x 6ft).

Pot Grown Plants

These are normally sold in small 9cm wide pots, unless a different pot size is shown (where the pot size is shown in litres). Pot grown plants can be planted at any time of the year.

Availability

Pot Grown are generally available all year.

If a plant is currently out of stock because it is out of season (for example, bare rooted plants in summer) or we have sold out but we are expecting more to be available you can pre-order the plant. We only charge credit/debit cards when an order is despatched, not when an order is placed.

Planting Distances for planting as a Hedge

We recommend planting Photinia Crunchy in a single row between 60cm/2ft apart and 90cm/3ft apart:

Planting closer will mean the plants will grow together and form a hedge quicker, but requires more plants.

To calculate the number of plants needed for a length of hedging, click on Planting Distance Calculator above.
