Info: Photinia x fraseri is a hybrid of P. glabra (from Japan) and P. serrulata (now P. serratifolia) (from China). Photinia ‘Louise’ was found in Scotland and named after the daughter of the founder of the plant 

Notes: Purchased November 2022 Burncoose nursery for the potted cottage front garden. Bought as replacement for H. serrata ‘Kiyosumi’ (now planted in the back Japanesque style garden) which also has red leaves in Spring and Autumn!
