Description
This medium sized evergreen shrub has bright red with bronze foliage in spring transforming to dark green foliage in fall. Its dense, compact growth habit reaches 8-12 feet tall. Best performs as a hedge, mass planting, screen, and accent plant in the landscape or in a container. This adaptable evergreen shrub needs a regular water schedule to ensure the growth of a mature root system. After the mature root system is established, watering is needed occasionally, except during a drought, watering is needed regularly. Shearing is recommended to maintain desired shape. Red tip photinia shrubs generally do well in sunny conditions and have a good tolerance for drought. They will tolerate some shade. Continual pruning of the shoot tips will prompt continued production of the attractive reddish leaves. This does preempt flower production but, again, this is a shrub normally grown for its foliage, and the flowers have an odor that is not pleasant. Red tip photinia is a common choice for hedges, especially where it is possible to provide the constant pruning needed to maintain the shape and promote the ongoing formation of new red leaves.

It can be a good choice for hedges and privacy screens in areas where deer are a problem, as these animals tend to leave the shrub alone.
