Why Choose the Lilly Pilly 'Backyard Bliss'?

• Fast-growing and naturally upright, making it one of the best choices for quick, dense hedging or privacy screens in Australian gardens.

• New foliage bursts with rich coppery tones before maturing to glossy green, providing a striking contrast and year-round visual interest.

• Resistant to psyllid damage (a common issue in other Lilly Pilly varieties), ensuring cleaner, healthier foliage without chemicals.
