Photinia × fraseri 'Red Robin' Pleached – Vibrant Evergreen Screening with Formal Elegance

Photinia 'Red Robin' pleached trees offer a smart, contemporary solution for instant privacy, screening, or garden architecture. Grown with a 150 cm clear stem and a 120 × 120 cm trained frame, these evergreen trees display eye-catching red young foliage that matures to glossy green, adding vibrant colour and year-round interest.

Perfect for above-fence screening or dividing outdoor spaces, this pleached form of ‘Red Robin’ brings bold structure and seasonal beauty to both modern and classic garden designs. The formal frame and manageable size make it ideal for town gardens, courtyards, or defining seating areas with living walls.

Seasonal Beauty & Growth

Spring:

• Bright red new growth emerges along the pleached frame, creating a dramatic flush of colour.

• Small clusters of creamy-white flowers may appear on older, untrimmed growth.

Summer:

• Foliage matures to a rich, glossy green while maintaining a dense, uniform structure.

• Regular trimming encourages fresh red regrowth and keeps the frame crisp.

Autumn:

• A second flush of red foliage may appear, adding late-season interest.

• The evergreen canopy remains full and lush as the seasons shift.

Winter:

• Holds its foliage throughout winter, providing strong architectural presence and reliable privacy when other plants are bare.
