ILEX MES BLUE GIRL
Grower Notes:

Ilex meserveae 'Blue Girl' PP2434 is commonly referred to as Blue Girl Meserve Holly. It is one of the hardiest hollies out there! It features a large, spreading habit with glossy blue-green evergreen foliage on purple stems. Showy red fruit appear in fall and last through winter that attracts birds and other wildlife. A male pollinator is need for berry production such as Ilex 'Blue Boy' or 'Blue Prince'.

Blue Girl Holly is a low maintenance shrub that thrives in full sun or partial shade. It enjoys rich, acidic, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It will not tolerate standing water. It is best to prune 'Blue Girl' in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed. It is ideal for hedges or screenings in addition to mass and accent plantings.
