I have Pink Marble too..
pretty foliage colours .. :o)

Mine has grown at a steady rate, but it is "competing" with other shrubs on each side ... Let's hope yours puts on some new growth speedily :o)

Have you had yours very long TT? Hope mine grows quickly too, i've cleared that part of the garden so its planted where it can 'breathe'.

Hi Dawn...
Mine has been in the ground maybe 18 months ... it really deserves to have been planted in a better position... but despite deserving a bit more space, and being in rather dry ground, it is growing nicely. I'm sure you'll be pleased with yours.. such fascinating colour variations on the leaves...

Yes, let's hope yours copes well with the winter weather. :o)

I love this plant. I had no problems with mine over last winter...they did better than any of my other photinias. I hope yours is the same.

Yes, my Pink Marble is next to a Pileostegia viburnoides...
Over the icy winter, the Photinia coped well with the cold, but the Pileostegia suffered some leaf damage ...

Thanks TT, also nice to hear they are very frost hardy.
Good luck with yours Meadowland.
