Description:
Ilex 'Nellie R Stevens' is a fast-growing, dense evergreen shrub with a natural pyramidal shape, ideal for privacy hedges. It features tiny green-white flowers in spring and bright red berries in fall and winter. This holly thrives in USDA zones 6-9, preferring partial shade but tolerating full sun. It grows up to 3 feet per year, reaching 15-25 feet as a hedge or 25-30 feet individually, with a width of 5-10 feet. The shrub is low maintenance, pest and disease resistant, and responds well to pruning. It prefers slightly acidic, well-drained soil and is mildly drought-tolerant once established.
