Product Detail

Burford Holly is a cultivar of the I. cornuta holly. The parent plant originated in Asia where it is often found in ravines and hills and alongside mountain paths. The cultivar, 'Burfordii', was discovered in Georgia with characteristics of drought and heat tolerance and, unlike the parent plant, this cultivar is easily transplantable. Burford Holly is fast growing, dense, and, because it tolerates severe pruning, can be trimmed to form a rounded large shrub, small tree (when lower branches are removed), or hedge. Pruning should be done in late winter.
