Product description

Photinia × fraseri 'Louise'
A colorful twist on a garden classic – variegated foliage with year-round appeal.
Photinia 'Louise' brings a fresh, modern look to the garden with its striking variegated leaves, each edged in creamy-white with flushes of pink and red on new growth. In spring, vibrant young foliage emerges bright red, contrasting beautifully with the mature green and cream-toned leaves.
Compact and slow-growing compared to standard varieties, ‘Louise’ is ideal for smaller gardens, low hedges, or decorative containers. It offers the same evergreen structure and seasonal interest that Photinias are known for, but with an extra splash of color.
