Product Notes:

Waterhousea Floribunda is one of the many trees now making its home in Melbourne from northern Australia.
This tree is native to northern coastal New South Wales and extends north into Queensland.
It has been used in Melbourne since the early 1900s but is becoming more popular because of its relatively quick growth lush foliage and screening potential.
Like the other lilly pillies Weeping Lilly Pilly has lustrous dark green evergreen foliage.
If not pruned this foliage can extend to the base of the tree and if clipped can become very dense.
As a screen Weeping Lilly Pilly can be kept to a height of 4-5 m with a spread of 2-3 m.
As it grows quite quickly formal hedges will need to be tended at least twice a year.

COMMON NAME: WEEPING LILLY PILLY

This tree is much hardier than expected, being quite happy in full sun and able to withstand at least a light frost.
It is reputed to like large quantities of water but can survive quite well with none.
If treated to additional water and fertilizer you may be rewarded with very fast growth.
About the only thing this species objects to is poor drainage and is recommended to anyone with a creek, dam, or gully and the room to grow it.
The long leaves with their wavy margins are a dark glossy green with new growth sometimes vivid red before turning lime green
Occasional old leaves turn red before dropping.
In low light areas the hot pink new growth against the glossy dark green older foliage looks stunning.
This coupled with its lovely shape and attractive weeping habit has made it well known in cultivation for many years.
