Photinia x fraseri 'Red Robin'

What is a Fresh Pleached Tree?

The term 'pleached' refers to trees that are trained to form a screen of branches and foliage with a single straight stem. Planted in rows at set distances, pleached trees will form an elevated 'green wall' that can be ideal as a green alternative to high fencing. Pleached trees are often used to screen unsightly buildings and can be grown above an existing wall or fence. Used in this way pleached trees can extend the height of a privacy screen to 3 metres or more.\n\nFresh pleached trees are younger trees with less growth development on the cane head structure than fully mature versions. Being less mature, they are however more cost effective options yet will grow into beautiful mature specimens with full, thick screens. \n

Species Information

Photinia pleached trees are a popular evergreen and colourful variety of pleached, with a slightly less formal aesthetic. Photinia has large glossy green leaves with new growth emerging as a contrasting, stunning red, particularly in the spring and summer months. Photinia 'Red Robin' has a less dense foliage than other pleached varieties offering a subtle screening option for both shade and privacy as its structure allows for some movement in the breeze leading to dappled light and glimpses through the canopy. \n

Delivery Information

Please note that specialist delivery is required for this product due to its size, shape and weight. Although free delivery criteria for a pallet delivery will show on online ordering, there is a delivery charge applicable on orders under 5 units. Please call 01257 263 876 and ask for a pleached tree specialist who will be able to explain the specifics around delivery costs, delivery vehicle type, required access to your property and equipment needed to move the plants from lorry to planting location.\n\nPlease note: We recommend that any moving or lifting equipment such as a forklift, is booked for a full day not part day, as we cannot guarantee what time the trees will arrive on site on the day of delivery.
