Female, evergreen shrub with dense, lustrous, blue-green, leathery leaves. Tiny, white flowers are produced in spring and, with a male Ilex meserveae 'Blue Prince' nearby, sets a profusion of bright red berries from fall through winter, attracting birds and other animals (are toxic to humans). Broadly pyramidal, tightly foliaged, shrubby habit. Easily pruned. Plant in full or partial sun in somewhat moist, well drained soil, and within 75 ft. of the male. Use as a single specimen or as a dense hedge. Provides a dark backdrop for white or silver colored plants.
