Description

With its glossy, dark olive-green foliage, Phillyrea Grand Prix brings a distinct Mediterranean vibe to any setting—sun-drenched or otherwise. Its compact, evergreen nature and refined leaf structure evoke the atmosphere of southern gardens, while its robustness allows you to recreate that same feeling even in colder, more temperate regions.

What makes Grand Prix stand out is its naturally dense, upright habit. Thanks to shorter internodes and excellent branching, it forms a full and structured plant. Whether you're shaping a formal hedge, softening urban landscaping, edging a pool, or adding structure to rocky or coastal plots, Grand Prix delivers. It’s especially versatile — equally suited for low hedges starting from around 80 cm, as well as taller hedges up to 2 metres. The plant is easy to maintain and can be pruned at any height throughout the growing season.

How to care for Phillyrea Grand Prix:
Phillyrea Grand Prix grows up to 150-200 cm high and 100-120 cm wide after five years and has an upright, well-branched habit. Highly adaptable, Phillyrea Grand Prix shows impressive resistance to salt, drought, heat, air pollution, disease and even poolside chlorinated air. Hardy down to -15 °C and tolerant of brief wet feet, it thrives in full sun to light shade with well-drained soil.
