PLANT PROFILE

Syzygium paniculatum 'Backyard Bliss' is a fast-growing, low-maintenance Australian native ideal for creating dense, lush hedges. Its vibrant evergreen foliage is complemented by striking coppery bronze new growth, making it a gorgeous and eye-catching feature in any garden.

They look excellent when planted as privacy screens or formal hedges and work well for topiary or standalone ornamental trees. Summer brings fluffy cream-white blossoms that attract bees and native birds, boosting your garden’s ecological value.

Thriving in full sun to part shade and adaptable to well-drained soils—including clay and sandy types—this resilient tree is drought and frost tolerant once established. For added landscape interest, 'Backyard Bliss' hedges can be underplanted with shade-tolerant groundcovers or small flowering plants to create layered garden designs.

Planting the Backyard Bliss Lilly Pilly is straightforward:

  1. Location: Choose a spot with well-drained soil, whether it's clay or sandy, in full sun to part shade.
  2. Dig a Hole: Dig a hole that matches the depth of the root ball and twice its width.
  3. Position the Tree: Place the tree in the hole, ensuring it's at the same depth as in the container.
  4. Backfill: Fill the hole with soil and water thoroughly after planting.

Use this as a reference when digging your planting hole. We recommend digging at least 10% wider than the dimensions below to encourage strong root development.
