Krug's Holly Ilex krugiana
Wonderful medium-sized tree, guaranteed to bring wildlife to your yard. You
may plant it in full sun, or in a partially shaded area, like at the edge of
your forest, and plan for it to get as tall as 40 feet, or so.
New growth is dark red.
Below are two photos of one that is about 15
feet tall. The photo at right is a close-up of the one at left.
Trim it to encourage it to develop a nice
canopy, or let it go wild. Don't worry, it is a tame kind of wild.
There are both male and female trees, but you
won't find the males jumping the fence on moonlit spring nights to get at the
females. They depend on little Cupids to pass back and forth their
proclamations of love.
Here is a photo of the flowers on the female
tree.
We've got 'em in 3-gal. and 10-gal. pots
(below, about 5 feet high, planted).
Call today to reserve a few for your forest.
