Description
"Tiny Trev" Lilly Pilly (Syzygium australe) might be small in stature, but it's big on impact. Perfect for hedging and garden edging, this compact Aussie native pops with new orange-bronze growth, complementing its lush, shiny foliage. It's the right kind of tiny for those looking to create stylish boundaries or simply add a splash of vibrant colour.
When planting "Tiny Trev", make sure to treat sandy soils with a good soil conditioner. While it stands strong during moderate droughts once it's settled in, a bit of extra hydration during Bunuru (late summer) heatwaves wouldn't go astray. As with many Lilly Pilly varieties, a light trim after its flowering season keeps Trev looking terrific and tidy. Size doesn't matter when you've got style like Trev!
