Sizing guide
Escallonia Pink Pixie is a low growing compact shrub. Excellent for low border planting. Beautiful rich pink flowers in spring and summer. Grows to 80cm high and wide. Prune after flowering to maintain shape. Likes a full sun or part shade position in well drained fertile soil. Frost tolerant.
Ideal plant to line pathways or herb gardens. Consider using as a semi formal border plant in front of larger screening Lilly PIlly species. Although tolerant of dry conditions they do like to be kept just moist during extended dry periods.  Annual mulching will help with this.
Escallonia Pink Pixie is a small evergreen shrub that is native to South America, but is widely grown as an ornamental plant in gardens and landscapes around the world. It is a low-growing variety, typically reaching heights of only 50cm to 1m tall and spreading up to 1m wide.
One of the main attractions of Escallonia Pink Pixie is its abundant pink flowers, which bloom from late spring through to early summer. The flowers are small and bell-shaped, and grow in clusters along the stems of the plant. They are attractive to bees and other pollinators, making the plant a valuable addition to any garden.
Escallonia Pink Pixie has small, glossy green leaves that are oval in shape and slightly serrated around the edges. The leaves are evergreen, meaning they remain on the plant year-round, providing year-round interest and colour.
This plant is hardy and adaptable, and can grow in a range of soil types, from sandy to clay. It prefers a position in full sun to partial shade and is tolerant of salt spray, making it a good choice for coastal gardens.
Overall, Escallonia Pink Pixie is a charming and versatile plant that is well-suited to small gardens, rockeries and containers. It is easy to grow and requires little maintenance, making it an ideal choice for novice gardeners or those looking for a low-maintenance plant.
Will benefit from feeding twice per year with a complete plant food and or liquid fertilizer
