An evergreen, dwarf and very slow growing holly, Ilex crenata 'Mariesii' is suitable for growing in a container and has has clusters of handsome small glossy, dark green leaves. The leaves look a little similar to those of Buxus (box) and established plants have attractive black fruit in winter.

Ilex crenata 'Mariesii'  grows with an irregular yet upright habit and is suitable for growing in even the smallest of gardens.

For very patient gardeners, several plants can be grown together to make an eye-catching low hedge.

  • Soil: Most fertile soils. Like many hollies, Ilex crenata 'Mariesii' dislikes wet sites or soil prone to waterlogging. 
  • Hardiness: Hardy.
  • Flowering Period: April.
  • Flower Colour: White
  • Rate of Growth: Very slow.
  • Habit: Ilex crenata 'Mariesii'  grows to be a small compact, upright shrub. May be pruned to size if required.
