Japanese Holly 40/60cm Root Ball (Ilex crenata 'Conexa')
Product Code: ICC-RB-40/60
Japanese Holly Hedge - Ilex Crenata 'Conexa' - (40/60cm)
Description
Japanese Holly is an ideal alternative to Box hedging, due to it being very similar in nature (even though it is a type of Holly), and has added benefits - being resistant to Box blight, having the ability to regenerate from old wood (meaning you can re-shape it easily if it has been neglected for a while), and does not get leaf scorch when pruned. As well as this, Ilex crenata is also slightly more adaptable to tougher conditions than Box, meaning it is ideal for colder sites and situations.
You can keep Japanese Holly as a small, neat hedge, or make it part of a lovely edging to a border/path. Even consider growing it to be slightly higher (around 1m tall), and trimming into a topiary shape.
