Eye-catching shrubs with striking evergreen foliage, hardy and pest-free natured for year-round beauty, arriving to you already sculpted into pyramid topiary shapes.
Also known as Japanese Holly, this variety is an easy-grow and robust alternative of ornate hedging, thankfully without the feared pest and disease issues associated with the widely grown Box hedging.
These evergreen Ilex boast dark and glossy green leaves, very similar to Buxus hedging, and are supplied shaped like pyramids, ready to display right away!
Leaves are small, yet plentiful, masterfully coating the plants in colour regardless of the seasonal conditions falling on the garden. Plus, summer brings a scattering of dainty white flowers, followed by shiny black autumnal fruits.
Compact varieties, which can be planted either directly into the ground, where they provide an excellent foil for other colourful plants, in ornamental planters for the patio, balcony, decking, or as a pair to frame a door, gate, or pathway – the possibilities are endless!
Very hardy, equipped to survive freezing conditions of -15C and colder, and able to thrive whether in a sunny garden spot or in partial shade.
Supplied as a pair of established plants in 3L pots, each approximately 65-75cm tall, ready to plant.

Please allow us 7-10 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.
Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.
We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.
Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.
Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.
Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
