About this plant

Ilex aquifolium, commonly known as Common Holly, is a versatile evergreen with glossy dark green leaves, often spiny, that provide excellent year-round structure and colour in the garden. Female plants produce bright red berries in autumn and winter, offering a striking contrast and valuable food for birds. Its dense habit makes it ideal for hedging, screening, or as an attractive specimen tree in an Irish garden.
