This elegant topiary piece is a sophisticated choice for formal garden settings. As a quarter standard, it has a short, clear stem topped with a perfectly round, dense head, ideal for flanking entrances or patios without taking up too much vertical space. The tiny, neat, dark green leaves look almost identical to boxwood (Buxus), giving a classic, fine-textured look. However, Ilex crenata is the superior modern choice as it is generally highly resistant to box blight and box tree moth.
It looks particularly effective when planted in pairs in stylish containers. While hardy, container-grown specimens benefit from rich soil. To ensure the plant establishes a strong root system, we recommend using Rootgrow when planting. To maintain the density of the foliage and ensure the soil remains biologically active and healthy, especially in pots, apply Empathy After Plant Evergreen regularly throughout the growing season.
