Pinnacle

Syzigium australe ‘AATS’ PBR

An excellent plant for shaping and borders

By Katrina Layt

Pinnacle is the perfect topiary plant as can be seen in the photos on the right, they almost look like Australian Native Christmas trees! Even between pruning Pinnacle still looks tidy and won't grow too wide. It is also great as a narrow screen or hedge if you are tight on space.

The glossy green leaves give a new texture for narrow plantings as does the subtle reddish brown new growth. The fluffy white flowers and red fleshy fruits remind you that this amazing plant is actually a Lilly Pilly.

Pinnacle grows 6-10m high depending on conditions and 1-1.5m wide. Pinnacle tolerates most soils but prefers well drained and moist soils. Pinnacle is available in 200mm pots and above.
