Nellie R Stevens Holly 7 Gallon Container

Nellie R. Stevens Holly – 7 Gallon Container

The Nellie R. Stevens Holly is one of the most popular evergreen hollies for privacy screens, hedges, and formal landscapes—thanks to its dense foliage, upright growth, and brilliant red berries. This hybrid variety offers a perfect blend of durability, beauty, and fast growth, making it a go-to choice across the Southeast.

In this 7-gallon container, the Nellie R. Stevens Holly is well-rooted and ready to establish quickly in your landscape. It features dark green, glossy leaves with a classic holly texture, and produces bright red berries in fall and winter when a male pollinator (like a nearby Needlepoint Holly) is present.

This holly is known for being fast-growing, drought-tolerant, and deer-resistant—ideal for both residential and commercial use. It requires very little maintenance and responds well to pruning, whether you're shaping a formal hedge or letting it grow naturally.
