Steeds Holly 7 Gallon Container

Steeds Holly – 7 Gallon Container

The Steeds Holly (Ilex crenata 'Steeds') is a dense, upright evergreen shrub known for its glossy dark green foliage, strong pyramidal shape, and low-maintenance growth habit. A reliable alternative to boxwood, Steeds is ideal for formal hedges, foundation plantings, mass plantings, or border accents.

Offered in a 7-gallon container, this Steeds Holly is fully rooted and landscape-ready. Its naturally upright form and dense branching make it easy to maintain and perfect for creating year-round structure in residential or commercial landscapes.

Steeds Holly tolerates pruning, heat, humidity, and a wide range of soil conditions. It’s also deer-resistant, drought-tolerant, and performs well in both full sun and partial shade, making it one of the most versatile hollies available.
