Growing Tips
Planting Location:
Choose a spot in full sun or partial shade. Full sun enhances the pink and red tones of new growth, while some shade is tolerated. Shelter from strong, drying winds is ideal for keeping the leaves looking their best.
Soil:
Prefers moist but well-drained, fertile soil. Photinia can adapt to a wide range of soil types, including loamy and clay soils, as long as drainage is sufficient.
Watering:
Keep well-watered during the first growing season. Once established, it is moderately drought-tolerant but appreciates occasional deep watering during dry spells.
Feeding:
Apply a balanced, slow-release fertiliser in spring to promote healthy growth and vibrant leaf colour.
Pruning:
Trim after the first flush of growth in late spring to encourage fresh red-pink shoots. Can be pruned lightly throughout the growing season to maintain shape or create dense hedging.
Winter Care:
Hardy in most parts of the UK, but in exposed locations or colder regions, a mulch around the base in winter helps protect the root system.
