Boxed Leaf Holly
Ilex Crenata Or Boxed Leaved Holly
A beautiful evergreen shrub with scalloped green foliage so very similar to the box hedger.
If you have suffered with box blight and are worried then opt for the ilex, you can barely tell the difference and is a great alternative. A tough versatile shrub.
