Full Description
Holly plants are slow-growing – around 10-15cm per annum – and should be trimmed during the late winter or early spring when the hedge is dormant. Holly Hedging Plants – Evergreen prefers full or partial shade and moist soil, and is suitable for exposed sites and seaside gardens.
Female trees may produce enough berried shoots to be commercial at Christmas time. Thorny leaves make it a stock proof hedge but browsing animals do get some sustenance from them in winter. Finally the heavy white wood is prized by ornamental furniture makers and craft workers.
