We have recently moved into our new home and we have 5 of these trees planted at the back.

Anyone able to identify them for me please

Looks like Photinias to me

Yup I agree although I’ve never seen one trained as a standard before. £££££

They’re gorgeous - like a pleached hedge.

Photinia Red Robin.

Very nice!

Yes we like them, I honestly had no idea what they could be so thanks for identifying them. The house is 4/5 years old so I'm assuming they were planted then as a screen. There's just one house over the back that could potentially overlook us.

I take it we can leave them to it? Do they need any help or feeding or trimming?
