Syzygium luehmannii (Lulu)

Syzygium luehmannii (Lulu) is a compact, evergreen shrub prized for its glossy green foliage and vibrant pinkish-red new growth. The plant forms a dense, bushy habit, making it an excellent choice for hedges, privacy screens, or as a feature plant in small gardens. Its attractive, soft, rounded leaves add texture and colour to the landscape.

The lush growth of Syzygium luehmannii is complemented by clusters of white to pinkish flowers, which appear in summer and are followed by purple to black berries. This hardy shrub thrives in a variety of conditions, including full sun to partial shade, and is well-suited for coastal gardens due to its salt tolerance. It is low-maintenance, requiring minimal pruning to maintain its tidy shape.
