More about this plant
An evergreen red holly with a tight, upright pyramidal habit reaching about 14 feet tall and 8 feet wide at an average growth rate. Deeply serrated leaves emerge deep red and mature to a dark glossy green, and white flowers are followed by a heavy set of orange red fruit. It takes sun, part sun or part shade with average water in a well drained soil, and is reported deer resistant. Its narrow, dense form and prolific fruiting make it a strong choice for a screen, a tall hedge or an evergreen specimen. test
