Compact Inkberry Holly is a compact evergreen shrub with an oval to rounded habit of spineless leathery dark green leaves that fade to olive in winter.  If pollinated, the inconspicuous female flowers give way to abundant inky-black berries.  Grows best in moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils.  Hollies are dioecious and need both male and female plants to produce fruit. Easily pruned down to 2'.
