Spring sparkle

Related to the apple, my Photinia 'Red Robin' produces these very pretty clusters of small, white flowers appearing in dense, dome-shaped heads during the spring months.

 

An evergreen, tall shrub/small tree with large, finely serrated, deep green glossy leaves which are ruby red when new.

 

The natural range of of Photinia is within warm temperate Asia, from the Himalaya east to Japan and south to India and Thailand. The genus has been widely cultivated throughout the world as ornamentals for their white flowers and red fruits.

 

Flowers 5 to 10 mm diameter.
