Syzygium australe 'Straight & Narrow', commonly known as the 'Straight & Narrow' Lilly Pilly, is a distinct cultivar of the Australian native Lilly Pilly. It is highly prized for its unique, upright, and columnar growth habit, making it an excellent choice for narrow spaces or as an architectural feature in the landscape. This evergreen shrub or small tree belongs to the Myrtaceae family and is ideal for formal hedging, screening, and vertical accentuation in various garden settings.
Common Name: 'Straight & Narrow' Lilly PillyMature Height (meters): Can grow up to about 5-7 meters
Mature Width (meters): Approximately 1-1.5 meters, known for its slim profile
Spacing: Plant at least 1 meter apart from other plants or structures to accommodate its upright growth.
Foliage: The 'Straight & Narrow' Lilly Pilly features dense, glossy green leaves that maintain a neat and tidy appearance throughout the year. The foliage is evergreen, providing constant visual interest.
Flowering Period: It produces small, white, fluffy flowers in summer, followed by edible, purple-red berries that are attractive to birds and can be used in jams and jellies.
Form/Habit: This cultivar is particularly noted for its tight, columnar form, growing upright and straight, which is quite different from the broader growth habits of other Lilly Pilly varieties.
Uses: Ideal for narrow hedging, screening in tight spaces, creating vertical elements in the garden, and container planting. It's also suitable as a feature plant in both residential and public landscapes.
Sun: Prefers full sun to partial shade.
Maintenance: Low to moderate maintenance; requires occasional pruning to maintain its narrow shape and to encourage dense foliage growth.
Water Requirement: Moderate; regular watering is recommended, especially during dry periods and in the tree's early years.
