Report a problem
A handsome plant and a terrific screen or hedge, this evergreen shrub, to 8 ft tall and 5 ft wide, has spiny, holly-like leaves, shiny dark green and very densely held. Flowers appear in autumn, their tiny whiteness hidden amongst the leaves but the sweet fragrance easily noticed. Prefers sun to part shade in well-drained soil with summer water but easily adapts to many soils. Also can be pruned to maintain a smaller size. Frost hardy to 0F, USDA zone 7.

Glossy(!) holly-spined foliage clothes this attractive shrub, dense ; compact (slowly to 8-15'), a fine specimen or hedge with the added bonus of small fragrant flowers in fall; one of the hardiest cultivars. Sun-PSh/Med
