An impressive species of holly, growing to be a large & densely branching shrub, Ilex cornuta 'Indian Chief' has dark green, glossy leaves with a unique horned shape.. The central leaf spine points downwards, while the next two point up like horns. In late autumn Ilex 'Indian Chief' develops small, bright red and long lasting fruit nestled on the branches.
