Holly Castle Spire® (Ilex)

Description

Plant description

Castle Spire® is an improvement over other blue holly because of its superior branching and shinier foliage. Bright red berries and red fall color provide another season of interest. A great foundation plant, specimen or hedge plant that can be used as a replacement for upright yew. In colder climates it is best to plant broadleaf evergreens so that they are not exposed to winter sun or wind. Adaptable to wet soils. Hybrized by Holger Hachmann, of Germany. Use Castle Wall® as the pollinator. Introduced by Proven Winners® ColorChoice®. (CPBR 2314)
