Tell Me More…
An extremely showy evergreen shrub, Ilex x meserveae ‘Blue Princess’ is a hybrid holly that produces an abundance of bright red berries which brighten up the winter months. Its glossy, dark, blue-green foliage, held on purple stems, is a spiny and beautiful contrast to the bright berries, making it a stunning addition to any landscape. Growing up to 4m tall and 2.5m wide, this female holly produces an abundance of white flowers in spring, and will need a male pollinator such a ‘Blue Price’ planted nearby to ensure berries in the future. Perfect for hedges, screens, and foundation plantings, it is also deer resistant and drought tolerant, making it a great choice for low-maintenance gardens. ‘Blue Princess’ is easy to care for and requires minimal pruning. Given the Award of Garden Merit by the RHS for outstanding performance in the garden, just plant in full sun or partial shade in well-drained soil. Ilex x meserveae ‘Blue Princess’ can be pruned to shape in early spring before new growth appears.
