This stunning topiary is made from clipped Hedera Hibernica.
Hedera are evergreen climbing shrubs clinging by aerial roots. Clusters of small yellow-green flowers are followed by usually black berries. Foliage of flowering shoots is often less deeply lobed than that of the sterile, climbing shoots. H. hibernica is a vigorous large evergreen climber with broad, 5-lobed dark green leaves to 12 cm in width. Small greenish flowers in umbels are followed by black berries. The plant itself is hardy for the British climate at H5 and only needs sheltering in an extreme cold snap. The plant is prone to potential diseases and pests so take care. The plant can grow in full shade.

Product Description
The Photinia Serrulata, also known as Red Robin Tree or occasionally the Christmas Berry, is a group of evergreen shrubs grown specifically for glossy, dark green adult foliage, white flowers and brilliant red tinted young leaves; in the spring, they unfold to give a stunning display. The best known of the photinias is Photinia Red Robin, which is often planted as a specimen shrub or as a dense, evergreen hedge.
A Christmas Berry Red Robin puts on a show all year round, with white springtime flowers and new leaves that start out as a vibrant red, before darkening to a glossy green as they age. These bright colours are popular with wildlife, but due to its loose branch structure, birds are unlikely to choose the Red Robin as a nesting location (which is ironic). Christmas Berry Red Robins are an excellent choice for creating interesting hedges and borders.
