Rhaphiolepis indica ‘Maximus’ is a hardy evergreen shrub prized for its dense growth, glossy dark green foliage, and abundant seasonal flowers. Larger-leaved than many traditional Indian Hawthorn varieties, it forms a naturally rounded shape that makes it ideal for hedging, screening, and feature planting.
From winter through spring, masses of fragrant white to soft pink flower clusters cover the plant, creating an attractive display that is followed by decorative dark purple-black berries. Drought tolerant, coastal hardy, and easy to maintain, ‘Maximus’ is a reliable choice for both formal and informal landscapes.
