RED BEAUTY® BLUE HOLLY
Ilex x 'Rutzan' PP14750 is commonly referred to as Red Beauty® Holly. Developed by renowned holly breeder Elwin Orton of Rutgers University, Red Beauty® Holly features dense, dark green, spiny foliage with an abundant supply of bright red fruit from fall through winter. It will need a male pollenizer nearby such as Blue Prince or Blue Boy Holly to produce berries. It is vigorous, easy to grow and low maintenance with a neat, compact form. It is more heat tolerant than other blue hollies.
Red Beauty® ornamental Holly is deer resistant and thrives in full or filtered sun in rich, organic, acidic, evenly moist, well-drained soils. This is an extremely showy Holly for foundation plantings, hedges, or as a landscape specimen.
