Hot Tips Indian Hawthorn 180MM

Rhaphiolepis indica 'Hot Tips'

I am Hot Tips Indian Hawthorn. My family originated from China and Japan.

Habit Shrub - Floral display

Plant family Rosaceae

I am a showy but tough and hardy evergreen shrub with illuminating glossy foliage that produces masses of stunning white flowers in spring making me really stand out in the landscape. I am well suited to traditional low to medium clipped hedges, feature planting, mass planting, coastal and water wise gardens. Unclipped my compact, rounded habit remains neat making me ideal for low maintenance gardens and making me popular with public landscaping. I am tolerant of heat, frost, salt spray and coastal conditions making me an ideal choice for coastal gardens be around pools. I suit most soils with reasonable drainage.

I am popular and will make you happy because...

My masses of white flowers in spring are framed by my illuminating glossy foliage creating year round interest

Adaptable I perform equally well in pots and containers as I do planted out in the garden

My flowers may be cut to be enjoyed indoors. Left on the plant they will be followed by black berries in summer
