Syzygium Winter Lights 200MM

Syzygium australe 'Winter Lights'

I am Syzygium Winter Lights. My family originated from Eastern Australia.

Habit Shrub - Red New Foliage
Plant family Myrtaceae
I am a dwarf Lily Pilly, with attractive glossy green leaves that are vibrant red to orange when new. My fluffy white flowers in spring are followed by purple berries. I am great at attracting wildlife including birds and insects. I am happy being grown in a pot where I can be easily maintained at a small size. I respond well to pruning and am a great choice and easily maintained as a topiary, shaped as a standard or planted out in the garden as tight screening hedge.
I am popular and will make you happy because...
My upright form, brilliantly coloured and glossy dense foliage suits me to hedging and screening
I tolerate exposed locations, light frost and am resistant to psyllids and other pests
My flowers and fruit attract birds and other wildlife to the garden
