Nellie R. Stevens Holly in tree form offers all the classic beauty of the shrub variety but trained into a clean, upright silhouette with a central trunk. Its deep green, spiny leaves hold their color all year, while clusters of bright red berries appear in fall and persist through winter—drawing birds and adding festive color. This variety grows vigorously and responds well to pruning, making it a popular choice for framing entries, anchoring garden beds, or standing as a year-round focal point. It tolerates heat, urban conditions, and various soil types, all while requiring minimal care once established.
