Holly Dwarf Japanese

Dwarf Japanese Holly is a compact, evergreen shrub with small, glossy green leaves that resemble boxwood, but with added toughness and versatility. It's naturally rounded form and dense foliage make it ideal for low hedges, borders, foundation plantings, or as a boxwood alternative in formal gardens.

Unlike traditional holly, it has no spines and produces tiny white flowers in spring, sometimes followed by small black berries. It tolerates pruning well, is deer resistant, and handles a range of soils with ease - making it a favorite in both urban and traditional landscapes.
