Acmena smithii 'Minor', a distinguished Lilly Pilly cultivar, is prized for its compact growth and ornamental appeal. Unfurling with a show of bronzy-red new foliage, it transitions gracefully into a rich, glossy green. Mature heights hover around 3-4 meters, with a naturally dense growth pattern. Perfectly suited for hedging or as a solitary feature, 'Minor' is versatile and easy to maintain. When summer arrives, it showcases clusters of dainty white flowers, which are followed by attractive magenta berries, a treat for local birds.
