Properties and uses:
The Box-leaved Japanese Holly is a compact shrub with glossy foliage reminiscent of the common Box. Incidentally, it is an interesting alternative in low hedges and formal gardens. Bonsai's lovers will also like it. This Holly with its dense foliage can withstand any pruning and shaping, even the most imaginative. Its growth is rather quick (up to 30cm after the first year of plantation) which will allow you to create man-sized hedges in a reasonable period of time. Ideally it is to be pruned twice a year: at the beginning of summer, then in September-October.

Easy to grow, it is best not to plant it in full sun in hotter areas. It thrives in a moist, well-drained soil and withstands partial shade. The Box-leaved Japanese Holly is also disease-resistant.

The Box-leaved, Japanese Holly 'Green Hedge'® The foliage of the Ilex crenata 'Green Hedge' is slightly paler than the Dark Green' foliage. Thanks to its compact shape and its small leaves, it very much looks like a Common Box and it can easily be used as an alternative in low hedges or in topiary.
