Yaupon Holly (Ilex vomitoria) is a hardy, adaptable shrub native to the southeastern U.S., prized for its dense, compact growth and shiny, dark green foliage. It produces abundant clusters of vibrant red berries in fall and winter, providing food for birds and adding seasonal color to the landscape. This holly tolerates a wide range of soils, sun exposure, and urban conditions, thriving in full sun to partial shade. Its naturally rounded form makes it excellent for formal hedges or informal screens. Yaupon Holly is low-maintenance and deer resistant, making it a reliable choice for diverse landscape needs.
