Description:
Ilex 'Red Sky' is an evergreen shrub known for its glossy, dark green foliage with a red tint and tiny serrated leaves. It has an upright growth habit similar to sky pencil holly and is low maintenance, making it ideal for gardeners seeking a drought-tolerant and deer-resistant plant. This slow-growing shrub thrives in USDA Zones 6-9 and prefers partial to full sunlight with consistently moist soil. It is best to feed it with a slow-release, balanced fertilizer in early spring and prune in late winter or early spring.
