Holly - Castle Spire

This narrow form makes it great for hedges, foundation plantings, or as a specimen.  'Castle Spire' is a beautiful new compact, pyramidal blue holly with large lustrous dark green leaves, bright red berries, and superior branching. This evergreen requires a male plant to create berries; 'Castle Wall' is recommended as a pollinator. 'Castle Spire' needs full sun to partial shade.
