Standard Holly Tree | Hardy Evergreen Ornamental Lollipop Shape | Low Maintenance | for Patio, Garden, Entrance

Product description

• Standard Holly Trees, also known by the Latin Ilex aquifolium, are hardy evergreen ornamental trees with glossy dark green leaves. They bloom delicate white flowers in late spring through summer, with the vivid red berries associated with holly appearing in autumn winter. Trained into a classic lollipop stem, these trees are ideal for small gardens and patios.
• Holly trees retain their foliage all year round and add beauty and interest throughout the year. Holly is synonymous with the Christmas period and its glossy green foliage and bright red berries add an abundance of vibrant natural colour to an otherwise drab time of year.
• Standard Holly Trees are fairly low maintenance and demand only a little attention to thrive. Regular watering is required to keep the soil moist but well drained. This is particularly important if you keep the tree in a pot, where it can t absorb moisture from the ground. Annual pruning is all that is needed to maintain the attractive lollipop shape. The best time of year for pruning is late winter or early spring, before the tree enters its growing phase.
