Replacement Plant for Photinia

Q. I have several Red Tip Photinia that I use as a screen
from my neighbor. I would like to replace them with some a bush that would be
about 3 to 31/2 feet tall and handle our soil an weather better. I want to
spend a little time trimming them. Texas Rangers are good but need a lot of
trimming. Any Suggestions?

A. Bob
Morris forwarded me your message.   I am a Certified Horticulturist
working in the Las Vegas area since 1992.

 I suggest you look at Dwarf
Myrtle and Dwarf Youpon Holly. Both are tough evergreen shrubs growing to
about 4 feet by 4 feet.

Hope
this helps.
