Syzygium australe Resilience Cones

About Your New Syzygium australe Resilience Cones

Syzygium australe 'Resilience' grown as cones are dense evergreen lilly pilly topiary trees clipped into elegant conical forms, delivering a striking architectural element for formal gardens and structured landscapes.

'Resilience' Cones carry glossy dark green foliage with vibrant red new growth that adds stunning seasonal contrast. Known for its hardiness and psyllid resistance, this lilly pilly stays clean and healthy. Small fluffy white flowers in summer are followed by pink-purple berries that attract native wildlife. The cones work beautifully as driveway flankers, formal rows, and feature plantings in large containers.

'Resilience' suits full sun to part shade and adapts to a wide range of well-drained soils. It tolerates drought once established, light frost, and urban pollution, and is low maintenance, needing only minimal pruning to keep the symmetrical cone form.
