Ilex aquifolium ‘JC Van Tol’

Ilex aquifolium ‘JC Van Tol’ is a cultivar of the common holly, known for its attractive evergreen foliage and abundant red berries. This shrub or small tree typically reaches a height of 4 to 8 metres. It features glossy, dark green leaves that are less spiny than those of the standard holly. ‘J.C. van Tol’ is a female, self-fertile variety, meaning it can produce berries without a separate male plant, making it an excellent choice for ornamental gardens and hedges. The vibrant berries and dense foliage provide year-round interest and are particularly striking in the winter months.
