Straight and Narrow is a fast-growing native Lillypilly that naturally grows tall, straight and narrow (hence the name). This guy is similar to Syzygium Pinnacle but better as it is psyllid resistant which means it won’t get that weird leaf deformation that some Syzygiums are prone to. Where not much else will grow because of the narrow garden bed Straight and Narrow will thrive. Plant one plant per 1M to achieve a hedge or screen.
