Commonly Asked Questions
How fast does Syzygium australe ‘Resilience’ grow?
It’s a fast grower — around 30–60cm per year in good conditions. Regular watering, feeding and pruning will keep it dense and healthy.
Is ‘Resilience’ psyllid-resistant?
Yes — one of its best features. ‘Resilience’ was specifically selected for strong resistance to Lilly Pilly psyllid, which can cause pimpling on leaves in other varieties.
When is the best time of year to prune?
Late summer to early autumn is ideal, after flowering. You can also lightly trim through spring and summer to shape and encourage dense new growth.
