Description

Needlepoint Holly – Ilex cornuta ‘Needlepoint’ – is an evergreen shrub with an incredible upright habit. Delicate twirling leaves end in a single spine, preventing deer and other animals from feeding on it. As an evergreen, it is spectacular in any season, but in the spring, delicate white flowers bloom that become beautiful red berries in the winter. Heat and drought tolerant, this shrub is low maintenance while providing an aspect of elegance to your landscape.
