Acmena smithii ‘Green Screen’ – Green Screen Lilly Pilly

Acmena smithii ‘Green Screen’, commonly known as Green Screen Lilly Pilly, is an evergreen screening tree valued for its dense upright growth habit and glossy green foliage. The compact canopy develops reliable year-round coverage with strong branching density, making this variety highly suitable for privacy planting, formal hedging, and structured landscape applications. It performs best in full sun to partial shade and well-drained soils, adapting well to humidity, coastal exposure, and urban growing conditions once established. Suited to temperate, subtropical, and coastal climates, this variety develops good drought tolerance and dependable low-maintenance performance. Its dense growth responds well to clipping and shaping, while improved psyllid resistance supports cleaner foliage presentation in landscape settings. They look excellent when used for screening, hedging, boundary planting, and commercial landscape applications where dense evergreen structure and reliable privacy coverage are required. This variety is commonly specified for residential screening, urban gardens, and formal planting schemes requiring consistent evergreen performance.
