The Honey Maid Holly is a striking variegated evergreen holly, with bright green leaves that are edged in a broad band of creamy-white. It also carries a heavy crop of bright red berries from September through into March, and is the most cold-resistant variegated holly available. Growing 4 to 8 feet tall, it is an upright pyramid thatās ideal for a lawn, in shrub beds, or even trimmed into a colorful hedge.
- Bright leaves are edged in creamy-white
- Almost spine free for garden safety
- The best variegated holly for colder zones
- Carries a big crop of red berries
- Excellent for brightening your beds in winter
The Honey Maid Holly will have the best leaf colors and the biggest berry crop when grown in full sun, but it also tolerates partial shade and even light full shade. It is hardy in zone 5 and can be grown in a pot outdoors from zone 6. Any well-drained soil is suitable, but richer, moist soils are preferred. Plant a male blue holly like āBlue Princeā or CASTLE WALLĀ® nearby as a pollinator for the best berry crop.
