The Ilex Crenata, or Pom Pom tree, is a versatile evergreen shrub with glossy dark green leaves resembling boxwood, making it an excellent alternative to Buxus plants.
This shrub is perfect for formal hedges, topiary designs, or low borders due to its neat, compact growth habit that responds well to pruning, ensuring its unique shape is maintained without fear of deterioration.
During late spring, small white flowers bloom, followed by black berries on female plants in summer, while the plant retains its vibrant green foliage year-round.
Reaching a height of 100-120cm, this plant thrives in well-drained, moist soil with full sunlight or partial shade. It is advertised as a low-maintenance option that is resistant to common box plant diseases.
Ideal for creating structure in formal gardens or outlining pathways, this plant will enhance the appearance of your lawn or patio, standing out from neighboring spaces. Don’t miss the £100 discount available during this end-of-season sale.
