Ilex × ‘Nellie R. Stevens’ – 3/4 Standard Holly with Glossy Evergreen Foliage & Bright Red Berries

Ilex × ‘Nellie R. Stevens’ is a superb evergreen holly, grown here as a 3/4 standard with a clear stem and a shapely, dense crown of glossy foliage. Valued for its elegant form and heavy production of bright red berries, it brings year-round structure, colour, and a refined, traditional feel to any garden. Hardy, resilient, and easy to grow, it is an excellent choice for entrances, formal designs, or evergreen topiary planting.


Seasonal Highlights

  • Spring: New glossy foliage emerges; small white flowers attract pollinators.

  • Summer: Dense, deep green leaves form a rich, polished canopy.

  • Autumn: Red berries begin to ripen, providing strong seasonal colour.

  • Winter: Evergreen structure and long-lasting berries brighten the coldest months.


Key Features

  • Evergreen beauty – Glossy, dark green leaves with a refined, tidy shape.

  • Abundant berries – Bright red berries provide autumn–winter colour and wildlife value.

  • Formal shape – 3/4 standard form suits entrances, lawns, and structured planting.

  • Hardy and reliable – Tolerates wind, pollution, and most UK climates.

  • Low maintenance – Holds its shape with minimal pruning.


Perfect For

  • Entrance planting – Ideal for flanking doors, paths, or gateways.

  • Formal gardens – Complements symmetrical or architectural layouts.

  • Year-round structure – Excellent evergreen shape in borders or lawns.

  • Wildlife gardens – Flowers support pollinators; berries feed birds.

  • Urban and exposed sites – Tough, dependable, and wind-tolerant.


Growing Tips

  • Sun/Position: Best in full sun or light shade.

  • Soil: Moist, fertile, well-drained soil; tolerant of clay or chalk.

  • Hardiness: Fully hardy across the UK.

  • Care: Prune lightly in late spring or early summer to maintain shape. Water regularly when establishing, especially in the first year.


Looks Great With

  • Box or Ilex crenata topiary – Complements formal evergreen planting.

  • Camellias and Pieris – Add seasonal colour beneath the crown.

  • Grasses – Stipa or Carex soften the look around its base.

  • Winter-interest shrubs – Pair with Dogwoods or Skimmia for contrast.


Ilex ‘Nellie R. Stevens’ in its 3/4 standard form is a refined evergreen that offers glossy foliage, reliable berries, and timeless structure. Hardy, elegant, and easy to care for, it’s perfect for entrances, formal layouts, or year-round architectural planting.
