The attached image of FIRESCREEN trees in production was taken at the nursery of arguably Australia's most prestigious tree grower; Tree's Impact P/L.
Broad glossy leaves and semi-pendulous form and NON-INVASIVE roots make this selection an ideal candidate for smaller gardens and confined spaces such as planter boxes and roof top gardens. A good alternative to Ficus hillii for raised (pleached) hedges.
FIRESCREEN tolerates a broad range of conditions in coastal temperate regions of Australia in full sun to half shade. For best results plant using organic matter in well drained soil and water regularly until established. Very hardy to heatwaves/wind/coastal/cold(to -2) conditions once established.
A low-fruiting selection, FIRESCREEN produces only a limited amount of (edible) cherry.
