Image of Lilly Pilly

A compact, smaller growing form of Lilly Pilly with a low-branching bushy habit. Dark glossy green foliage with bronze new growth. Creamy white flowers in spring followed by highly ornamental white, pink and purple berries in summer. Makes an excellent formal hedge or screen for sites sheltered from hot afternoon sun. New growth can be damaged by frost. Excellent container plant. Regular tip pruning and light applications of fertiliser produces best results.
