CHINA GIRL® FEMALE BLUE HOLLY

Ilex meserveae 'Mesog' China Girl® PP4878 is commonly referred to as China Girl® Holly. It is a dense, mounding evergreen holly that can be used as a hedge or low screen. It shears well so can be kept more compact that other varieties. China Boy® Holly can be used as a pollinator in order to have bright red berries in the fall. The ornamental berries attract overwintering birds and other wildlife. China Girl® is incredibly hardy and very low maintenance. It features dark green evergreen foliage that remains green throughout the winter and is best pruned in late winter once the threat of winter extremes has passed.

China Girl® Holly thrives in full to partial sun in rich, organic, acidic, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It is ideal for mass plantings, hedges, screens and container plantings.

Planting Tips ⓘ

To help this plant settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in fertile, acidic, and well-draining soil, selecting a location that ranges from full sun to partial shade depending on the specific cultivar. These versatile shrubs generally prefer consistent moisture, especially during the first growing season to establish strong root systems, and they benefit from protection against harsh, drying winds. Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead wood or to shape the plant, which encourages dense, healthy foliage and helps maintain a manageable size. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and maintain soil acidity, taking care to keep the material a few inches away from the crown to prevent stem rot.
