Tree Syzygium australe 'Hinterland Gold' Hinterland Gold Lilly PIlly Tree Syzygium australe 'SAN01' Straight and Narrow ™ Straight and Narrow Lilly Pilly Tree
Description A native shrub with a dense habit. This is a fast-growing variety well suited to hedging and screens. Compact glossy green foliage develops a lovely coppery hue in the new growth. During the warmer months, white fluffy blossom are borne, followed by fleshy red berries. This Lilly Pilly is a better form than the narrow growing 'Pinnacle' due to its dense foliage and naturally columnar form. Foliage is a mid-green colour and fruits are reddish-pink. As the name suggests it is a great selection for narrow spaces.
Foliage Evergreen Evergreen
Form Oval Columnar
Mature Size 6 x 3m 5-8 x 1-1.5m
Uses Used widely as a hedging or screening plant. Also can be used to add colour and texture to gardens. Great addition to a native style garden. The berries can be used for jams, and infusing gin etc, but are recommended to be eaten raw. This is a narrow, compact Lilly Pilly suitable for hedging or screening in tight planting spaces. Would also be ideal along tight driveways and along fences if you require a little height. This variety could easily be used as an Australian native alternative to the Italian pencil pines. The berries can be used for jams, and infusing gin etc, but are recommended to be eaten raw.
Position & Soil Will tolerate most soils in a full sun to part shade position. Enjoys moist, well drained soils. Prefers full sun to part shade. This variety is tolerant of cold and dry periods once established. Only occasional pruning is required to maintain a neat shape and dense coverage.
