Mini Lilly Pilly
(Acmena smithii 'Minipilly')
Acmena smithii 'Minipilly' is a smaller growing, bushier form of the lilly pilly. It has attractive bronze coloured new growth with the older leaves a dark shiny green.
Fluffy creamy-white flowers during summer followed by masses of brightly coloured berries. This is a tried and tested variety and great for thick hedges either formal or informal.
MiniPilly performs best in deep, loamy soils in a partially shaded to sunny position although it can handle a range of conditions. Best to avoid wet and poorly drained soils.
Minipilly responds well to pruning and clipping and is fantastic as a thick screening hedge or to block out the neighbours as it responds well to hard pruning and is very long lived.
Height: 2-3m (can be pruned to any height)
