Holly hedges can be planting in heavy shade as well as direct sun in most soil types as long as it is well-draining and not too dry. Holly hedges create good wind barriers and will tolerate coastal site locations.
Holly evergreen leaves are shiny dark to black-green, thick and leathery with very sharp spiny edges which make it a highly successful barrier to any unwanted visitors.
Inconspicuous clusters of small white four petal flowers appear in May. An abundance of decorative pea-size bright red berries appears in autumn and remain into winter or sometimes longer, if not eaten by the wildlife.
