Gulftide False Holly is an upright bushy evergreen shrub grown for its foliage. The glossy toothed foliage emerges bright green before quickly turning dark green. The small but highly fragrant white flower clusters bloom in fall and are followed by olive like berries. Best planted in part sun with acidic rich and moist well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established.
