Holly Tree ‘Oakland’ #7 Pot

The Oakland Holly is a striking evergreen known for its bold, pyramidal shape and dark green, glossy leaves that provide year-round beauty. An interesting characteristic of the Oakland Holly is its ability to produce small red berries in the fall and winter, which attract birds and add seasonal interest to the landscape.

In southern Louisiana, the Oakland Holly can grow to a height of 15 to 20 feet with a spread of 12 to 15 feet, making it an excellent choice for hedges, privacy screens, or as a standalone specimen. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and is well-suited to USDA zones 6-9, tolerating mild frosts. This holly prefers well-drained soil and requires regular watering during the first few growing seasons to establish strong roots, but it can tolerate occasional dry periods once mature.
