Holly, Southern Living Plant Collection ‘Nelliet’ (5 Gallon)

Description

Holly, Southern Living ‘Nelliet’

Introducing a new take on an old classic. The Nelliet holly tree is a fantastic upright holly from the Southern Living Plant Collection. This new improvement on the classic holly offers superior branching, denser foliage, and requires minimal pruning. It features a classic pyramidal shape, dark green leaves, and glistening red berries. Once achieving the appropriate height, this plant is ideal as a nearly impenetrable privacy screen. Just try and make it through this heavy-duty beauty! When Nelliet is still young, you can plant it in containers for a bright, evergreen accent that holds its shape. You can fill in around it with annuals or perennials to provide a spark of color and truly eye-catching container planting. This holly is also bright enough to stand on its own in a container.
