Red Robin (Photinia x Fraseri Red Robin) has amazing colour all year round. This plant can be grown as a standalone shrub or planted as a hedge. Red robin is a vigorous plant that requires plenty of trimming. It is hard to beat red robin for colour.
Red Robin is an evergreen hedge which is hardy to around -15 degrees celsius. If not pruned it can grow to around 15 foot high but can be easily kept at 5 foot. Our Red Robin Hedges are sold as healthy potted plants. We recommend they are planted at 2 per metre in free draining soil.
We have a wide range of other hedge plants for sale including Laurel, Beech, Box, Whitethorn & more. Each year we grow thousands of hedge plants in our nursery. By producing these plants in the harsh West of Ireland climate, our plants become very hardy by sale time. We also partner with other premium Irish Nurseries to source different/unusual hedging plants. All of this enables us to provide you with top quality plants with strong, vigorous root systems. All of our hedging can be purchased online or at our nursery and is available for collection or delivery throughout Ireland.
