The leaves emerge flushed with soft pink and cream tones, maturing to a mix of creamy white, grey-green, and deep glossy green, creating a layered, marbled effect that provides year-round ornamental interest unlike any other Photinia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike traditional Fraser's photinias grown primarily for their red new growth, 'Pink Marble' offers something altogether more refined and unusual.
