Green Luster Holly Shrubs
Green Luster Holly shrubs are low-growing shrubs with dark green leaves that are perfect for use as a low hedge. Green Luster is drought-tolerant and can grow in various soil conditions. It is cold and hardier than other Japanese holly shrubs allowing it to be used further north.
Ilex crenata Green Luster prefers full sun but can be equally as happy in part sun. Very versatile and can be used for hedges, foundations, or mass plantings. The black berries are a favorite of songbirds.
