Acmena smithii 'Allyn Magic'
Acmena smithii ‘Allyn Magic’

One of the best low growing Lilly Pillies, Acmena smithii ‘Allyn Magic’ makes great border plant and is also Psyllid resistant.

As a native hedging plant is easy to prune as the foliage is reasonably small and can be grown in containers so it could be used as a patio plant. It will flower in summer with small white flowers that attract bees and birds to the garden. The flowers are followed by small berries.

Care

In a well drained humus rich soil, Acmena smithii ‘Allyn Magic’ is a very easy care plant.

  1. Dig the soil over well adding a little well rotted compost to poorer soils.
  2. Plant at the same depth it was in the container.
  3. Water in with a liquid seaweed fertiliser
  4. Mulch around the plant to maintain a cool root run and prevent weeds.
  5. Prune in spring before the new foliage shoots.
  6. Use a specialist native plant fertiliser in spring to maintain good foliage.

If you are planting Acmena smithii ‘Allyn Magic’ as a low hedge, plant at around 50cm apart to 80cm apart depending on the effect required.
