Escallonia Macrantha 'Rubra' (Red Escallonia) is a vigorous evergreen shrub prized for its glossy dark green foliage and masses of rich red to deep pink tubular flowers that bloom from late spring through autumn. Its dense, bushy growth habit makes it an excellent choice for flowering hedges, privacy screens, borders, and feature plantings, providing vibrant colour and year-round structure in the garden.

Highly adaptable and easy to maintain, this hardy shrub thrives in full sun and tolerates coastal conditions, wind, and periods of drought once established. Its long flowering season, attractive evergreen foliage, and dependable performance make it a popular choice for both formal and informal landscapes.
