Description

Breathtaking! An extraordinary evergreen standard tree for any garden, big or small. 'Carre Rouge' is just like traditional 'Red Robin', but stronger, more compact and with a better plant shape.

A compact, upright standard tree with the famous brilliant red young leaves of a photinia in late spring. Each one glows like a small lantern before maturing to a deep, elegant green. In mid to late spring, small creamy-white flower clusters emerge.

This clever variety crams all the style of a larger photinia into a neater, space-saving package that works in modern gardens and patio containers alike.

As an evergreen standard tree, it brings height and structure without dominating the garden. Its naturally tidy habit makes it easy to maintain - it responds well to pruning, stays dense and compact, and retains its shape without fuss.

Fully hardy and resilient, this is a trouble-free option for anyone wanting an instant focal point and reliable year-round presence.

With strong growth, compact habit, improved modern breeding and a stunning red flush each year, Photinia 'Carre Rouge' delivers style and success.

Supplied as an established, standard tree in an 18cm pot, 80-100cm tall, ready to plant.

Top Tips
  • Standard Photinia can be clipped up to 3 times a year to encourage the new red leaves to develop.
Care Information
  • Also known as the Christmas Berry, photinia grows best in fertile, well-drained soil in sun or partial shade.
  • A sheltered position is best as the new growth can be scorched by drying wind or late frosts. Regular watering can cut down the risk of scorching.
  • Really easy to care for, any pruning is minimal, and is usually just formative. Carried out before mid-summer, it allows new growth to harden off before winter.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
