Blue Princess Holly

Description

Holly isn't just a holiday plant. You'll have a very full and lively feature in the garden, all year round with Blue Princess Holly. The leaves add interesting cool tones and spiky–toothed texture to a mixed border. Then, ornamental holly berries in searing red appear in fall, when the garden needs some new color, and keep the landscape lively through winter. You can get this holly plant started in summer—we're shipping it now, established in a gallon–size pot and ready for planting. Ilex x meserveae 'Blue Princess' PP03675
