Tensaw Holly is a compact native evergreen shrub with a denser and more rounded pyramidal habit. The glossy green foliage is spineless and holds its color year round. In mid spring white flowers attract pollinators, and pollinated female plants will be followed by attractive red berries that persist in winter. Grows best with full sun and moist well-drained soils.
