Common Holly is a large evergreen shrub/tree with dark green shiny leaves with a wavy texture. It can be grown as a specimen tree, hedge, or clipped bush. The holly can be male or female, however it is very hard to identify the differences between them. Both male and female sexes must be present to produce winter berries which appear from late Autumn to mid-Winter. The holly can grow up to a height of 15m if unpruned and likes most soil types.
Don't forget to consider:
Tree and Shrub Compost to add a layer of good soil in the planting hole - buy here.
Mycorrhizal fungi to encourage strong, new roots - buy here.
