    America's Most Popular Holly

    Why American Holly Trees?

    True to its name, the American Holly is the most popular Holly cultivar in the country. Why? Well, for starters, it's disease and pest resistant, making it ideal for creating an effortless hedge or privacy screen. Plus, it's versatile. American Holly Trees can be trimmed as a foundation hedge or as a secure, tall privacy fence. And they require minimal care, growing in a variety of climates and resisting mildew, disease and insects.

    Thick branches grow out from top to bottom, so the American Holly is well-suited to screening and privacy. And bright red berries pop against deep green foliage during winter, and creamy white flowers bloom in the springtime, giving you a variety of color over the seasons.

    Great value

    4 small Hollie’s now in the ground before winter arrives. Hoping for generous established growth next season.

    Looking good several weeks in. .

    So far, all good. Several weeks after planting outside, all plants look healthy.

    Very happy with my American Holly !

    I was lucky to order these beautiful plants before they sold out. Arrived on time in great packaging. I got the 1 gallon so not too many leaves but looks very healthy. Only one plant has some spots on leaves, but I’m hoping it will grow in.

    Great plant and very healthy!

    Received last September, and it has already grown about 8 inches. It is full and covered with flowers, so many berries it will have this year.
