Description

Bright, bold, and beautifully variegated—Photinia ‘Louise’ adds instant colour and structure to any South London garden. Its striking cream-edged green leaves flush soft pink in spring and again with fresh growth throughout the season. A stylish alternative to ‘Red Robin’, this evergreen beauty works brilliantly as a statement shrub, informal hedge, or backdrop to softer planting like lavender or euphorbia.
