Evergreen Ilex crenata (Japanese holly)
Color Name: Soft Touch
Easy to grow with great landscape texture. Perfect for use as a low, spreading, dense hedge along a border. Dense and spreading, this evergreen adds dependable performance to the landscape, along with great texture that is provided by its small, convexed, lustrous deep green foliage.
Growing Tips: Prefers light, slightly acidic, moist, well-drained soils, but highly adaptable. Water deeply and regularly during the first growing season to establish an extensive root system. Feed with a general purpose fertilizer before new growth begins in spring. For a tidy, neat appearance, prune annually to shape.
