Photinia 'Red Robin'


Photinia 'Red Robin'

I love the fresh red growth of these shrubs, even though I know others who really dislike them!

I'm liking it Shirley because they are a favourite here.

Thanks Julia, we noticed so many nurseries and garden centres have these for sale now.

I have three Photinias Shirley but the one in the big pot is covered in black spot. I have sprayed it but this is the second year this has happened and in two minds whether to get rid of it. The other two are well away from this one and are healthy at the moment.

Rose, I just looked at 'Red Robin' black spot on Google and it seems a fungicide spray might help with eradicating it from yours. There is an awful lot of information if you choose to have a look.

We have inherited a hedge of this, right across the front of our front garden. I wasn’t sure at first but now I really like it!
