Evergreen Ilex crenata (Japanese holly)
×
Color Name: Glow Stick
Glow Stick Japanese holly (Ilex crenata) brings year-round structure and color to landscapes and gardens. It naturally grows as a narrow column, just 1' wide, for practically limitless landscape possibilities. Bright golden foliage has shown no signs of sunburn or winter damage, even in full sun conditions. An excellent space-saver for small landscapes.
Growing Tips: Chlorosis may occur on alkaline soils. Narrow columnar habit all but eliminates the need to prune. Grows in shade, but color and form are best with some sun.
Soil: Ideally, grow in moist acidic soils with good drainage. Tolerates urban conditions well, however.
Pruning: Seldom needed, may be shaped in late winter.
Uses: Unique dwarf yet fastigiate habit is ideal for landscapes and containers. 1' width saves space in narrow beds and small gardens.
