About
Photinia Little Red Robin: the evergreen hedge with spectacular red foliage
The Photinia Little Red Robin (Photinia x fraseri) is an evergreen hedging shrub particularly prized for its glossy foliage with intense red highlights in spring. Originating from careful horticultural selection, it offers fast growth and a compact habit, ideal for forming a neat, dense low hedge or an elegant screen in small gardens and on terraces.
As the seasons pass, its bright red young shoots gradually transform into glossy dark green foliage, creating a striking color contrast. In spring, it is covered with small white flowers in corymbs that attract bees and other pollinators, thus contributing to the garden's biodiversity. Its modest mature height, between 100 and 120 cm, makes it a perfect choice for low boundaries and small spaces.
Foliage: evergreen, glossy, red in spring then dark green
Our Photinia Little Red Robin are delivered in 9 cm pots, ready to be planted. Choose the pack suited to your project and enjoy a colorful hedge from the very first season.

Everything You Need to Know About Photinia Little Red Robin (Photinia x fraseri), evergreen hedging plant, 9 cm pot, Height 25-35 cm
What exposure is suitable for Photinia Little Red Robin?
The Photinia Little Red Robin thrives in full sun or in partial shade. A sunny position intensifies the red color of its young spring shoots, one of its main decorative assets. It tolerates partial shade but will then produce slightly less colorful foliage. In full sun, be sure to maintain sufficient soil moisture during hot summers to support its rapid growth.
Is the Photinia Little Red Robin frost-resistant?
Yes, the Photinia Little Red Robin is a hardy shrub that withstands frost and overwinters outdoors without protection in the vast majority of regions in France. Its evergreen foliage allows it to stay green throughout the winter, even in cold weather. This is a major advantage for a hedge that must maintain its role as a privacy screen and its aesthetic appearance all year round.
When and how to plant the Photinia Little Red Robin?
The Photinia Little Red Robin is ideally planted in spring or autumn, outside of frost periods. Dig a hole twice as wide as the pot, incorporate potting soil, and plant the root ball at ground level. Water thoroughly after planting, then regularly during the first few weeks. In a pot, choose a container of good size with drainage holes and use a quality growing medium. To create a hedge, allow for 3 to 4 plants per linear meter to quickly obtain a dense and uniform plant screen.
When and how to prune the Photinia Little Red Robin?
The Photinia Little Red Robin is preferably pruned just after flowering in spring, then a second time at the end of summer if the hedge requires it. Regular pruning stimulates the growth of bright red new shoots, thus prolonging the characteristic colorful effect of this variety. Use a clean and well-sharpened hedge trimmer or secateurs. Avoid pruning in freezing or very hot weather to avoid stressing the plant.
How should I water the Photinia Little Red Robin?
The Photinia Little Red Robin requires regular watering during its first year after planting, until its roots become well established. Once established in the ground, it becomes fairly self-sufficient and only needs supplemental watering during prolonged droughts. In a pot, watering should be more frequent and adjusted to the seasons: more often in summer and less often in winter. Avoid overwatering and always ensure good drainage to prevent root problems.
Is the Photinia Little Red Robin evergreen in winter?
Yes, the Photinia Little Red Robin is an evergreen shrub: it retains its leaves all year round, including in winter. This makes it an excellent choice for an effective year-round hedge or privacy screen. Its glossy dark green foliage remains even in cold weather, ensuring continuous privacy in your garden or on your patio.
How many Photinia Little Red Robin plants are needed for a hedge?
To create a dense, opaque hedge with Photinia Little Red Robin, allow 3 to 4 plants per linear meter. Its fast growth and naturally bushy, compact habit make it possible to achieve a uniform plant screen in relatively little time. Depending on the batch chosen, you can cover several linear meters from the first planting. For a well-structured low hedge, a density of 3 plants per meter is generally sufficient; opt for 4 plants per meter if you want an opaque result more quickly.
