Ilex Creneta

Japanese Holly

Ilex or Hollies are versatile, evergreen shrubs known for their glossy foliage and suitability for hedging and topiary. They are low-maintenance and slow-growing, making them an excellent choice for formal gardens.

Ilex crenata 'Jenny' is a compact, evergreen shrub with minutely scalloped, glossy dark green leaves, ideal for topiary and hedging. This variety closely resembles the traditional box hedge, offering a perfect alternative with similar aesthetics and dense growth.

Ilex crenata 'Jenny' requires minimal care, needing clipping just a couple of times a year to maintain its shape. It thrives in moist but well-drained, humus-rich soil and can be planted in sun or partial shade.

This hardy shrub is an excellent choice for creating neat, formal hedges or intricate topiary designs, providing year-round structure and greenery to any garden.

The Ilex Crenata Green Hedge is a versatile and elegant evergreen shrub that adds a touch of classic sophistication to any garden or outdoor space. Known for its small, glossy green leaves and dense growth habit, this plant creates a refined and visually appealing hedge. The compact nature and lush foliage make it an excellent choice for formal borders, topiary, or as a low-maintenance alternative to traditional boxwood.

Where to Position Your Ilex Crenata Green Hedge

Ilex Crenata Green Hedge thrives best in full sun to partial shade. It should be planted in well-drained, fertile soil to encourage healthy growth and prevent waterlogging, which can be detrimental to its roots.

Regular watering, particularly during dry spells, will help maintain its vibrant foliage.
