Description
The Sky Pencil Holly (Ilex crenata 'Sky Pencil') is a stunning evergreen shrub that adds vertical interest and a touch of elegance to any landscape or container garden. Its slender, columnar shape and glossy, dark green foliage create a striking visual impact, making it a popular choice for both formal and contemporary garden designs. This slow-growing holly variety can reach a mature height of 7 to 12 feet while maintaining its narrow, upright form.The leaves of the Sky Pencil Holly are small, oval-shaped, and densely packed along the stem, forming a dense, bushy appearance. These foliage features not only contribute to its aesthetic appeal but also provide a sense of privacy and serve as a natural backdrop for other garden elements. The evergreen nature of this holly ensures year-round interest, as it retains its lush green foliage throughout all seasons.In late spring to early summer, the Sky Pencil Holly produces inconspicuous white flowers, adding a subtle touch of beauty to the shrub. These flowers are followed by small black berries that persist into winter, providing food for birds and wildlife. While this holly variety is primarily grown for its attractive form and foliage, its berries add an additional element of interest.
