aka AKA Eugenia Ventenati or Lilly Pilly

A very attractive evergreen shrub from Australia. The fine foliage is a glossy deep green shade with new growth tinged bronze-red. Makes a very attractive hedge that responds well to clipping. White flowers in summer. Plant in a sunny well drained position and protect from harsh frost.

Syzgium (pronounced si-zig-eum) is quite frost tender when young - especially the tips of the leaves but it will get tougher as it matures.
