A large holly that can grow wild or be pruned to your favorite shape
Nellie Stevens grows quickly and easily, tolerating both sun and partial shade and even short periods of drought. Like other hollies, its leaves are pointed and a bit spiky, which makes it a great security hedge that intruders will think twice about crossing (looking at you, deer!). Bees don’t think twice though—they adore the flowers.
Plant multiples to create an impenetrable wall of green—and enjoy the pretty red berries in winter.
