Description

Syzygium 'Resilience', commonly known as 'Resilience' Lilly Pilly, is a specially bred cultivar notable for its robustness and resistance to pests, particularly psyllids. As a member of the Myrtaceae family, this Australian native is an evergreen plant that is popular for hedging, screening, and ornamental purposes due to its dense foliage and attractive growth habit.

Common Name: 'Resilience' Lilly Pilly
Mature Height (meters): Typically grows to about 3-5 meters
Mature Width (meters): Approximately 2-3 meters
Spacing: Plant at least 2 meters apart from other plants or structures to ensure adequate growth and air circulation.
Foliage: The 'Resilience' Lilly Pilly is celebrated for its glossy, green leaves and dense growth. New growth often emerges with a reddish tint, adding to the visual appeal of the plant.
Flowering Period: This cultivar produces small, white, fluffy flowers in summer, followed by pink or purple berries that are attractive to birds and can be edible for humans.
Form/Habit: Syzygium 'Resilience' has a compact, bushy growth habit, making it an excellent choice for formal hedging, privacy screens, and as a feature plant in garden designs.
Uses: Ideal for creating hedges or privacy screens due to its dense and fast-growing nature. It's also suitable for topiary, container planting, and as a standalone ornamental shrub in landscapes.
Sun: Prefers full sun to partial shade.
Maintenance: Low maintenance; requires occasional pruning to maintain the desired shape and to promote a dense, healthy growth.
Water Requirement: Moderate; regular watering is recommended, particularly during dry periods and in the tree's early years.
