This Ilex Crenata, or Pom Pom tree, is a versatile, evergreen shrub known for its small, glossy, dark green leaves that resemble boxwood, which makes it a great substitute for Buxus.
This shrub is described as being perfect for formal hedging, topiary, or low borders, as it maintains a tidy, compact shape and responds well to trimming, so you never have to worry about it losing its unique design or dying from the occasional maintenance.
Small white blooms appear in late spring, followed by small black berries on female plants throughout the summer months, while the plant retains its vibrant green leaves all year.
Arriving at a height of 100-120cm, this plant grows well in moist, well-drained soil with full sunlight or partial shade. It’s touted as a low-maintenance pick for easy gardening, and it’s resistant to many common box diseases.
Ideal for creating a structure in formal gardens or bordering paths, this pick is sure to make your lawn or patio stand out from your neighbours. Plus, it’s £100 off in this end-of-season sale.
