The Satyr Hill American Holly is a unique selection that always delivers a bumper crop of berries for the holidays. When not doing that it makes a wonderful evergreen hedge, bush or specimen tree. The handsome leaves are always lush and green, and this native variety can never become invasive – it is already at home. It grows as much as 4 feet a year when young, soon becoming a tall hedge or a tree 35 feet tall and 20 feet wide. Plant it in natural wooded areas, where it will thrive beneath large deciduous trees.
Plant the Satyr Hill American Holly in full sun or partial shade. It grows well in most garden soils, preferring rich, moist, well-drained soils that are acidic or neutral. It is normally free of pests and diseases and ignored by deer. Trim in late spring and late summer for a dense, compact hedge or lawn tree.
