Overview & Specifications
Lilly Pilly Northern Select, Syzygium australe 'Northern Select'
A refined screening and hedging specimen with exceptional density, vigorous growth, and striking copper-red new growth that matures to deep, glossy green. Northern Select delivers structure and privacy at scale, without the wait.
Why Northern Select Lilly Pilly
New Growth Colour: Vivid copper-red flush on new foliage provides year-round visual interest beyond simple greenery.
Dense Habit: Naturally tight, upright form requires minimal intervention to maintain a clean, formal line.
Psyllid Resistance: One of the more resilient Syzygium selections; significantly reduces the unsightly leaf pitting common to the species.
Versatility: Performs reliably across coastal, subtropical, and temperate climates throughout eastern Australia.
Advanced Stock Availability: Supplied at mature heights for immediate screening impact from day one of installation.
Ideal Applications
Formal Hedging: Delivers tight, manicured screens for high-end residential and commercial properties.
Boundary Screening: Establishes privacy at scale quickly, suited to large residential and development projects.
Streetscapes & Boulevards: Upright habit and consistent form make it a reliable choice for structured linear plantings.
Architectural Backdrops: Deep green foliage mass provides a clean canvas to frame structures, pools, and feature planting.
