Overview
Dwarf holly (Ilex 'Jersey Male') is a compact evergreen shrub that is perfect for garden borders and small areas. This low-growing plant reaches less than 2 ft in height and has a mature width of up to 4 ft. The shiny, dark green, leathery leaves remain on the plant throughout the year. In the spring, it produces small white flowers that are followed by bright red berries that attract local wildlife. This slow growing bush is easy to care for and can be pruned to maintain a shape and size. Dwarf holly will be a great addition to any garden as it is drought tolerant, making it a low maintenance choice.
