The Compacta Holly is a popular evergreen shrub valued for its dense, compact growth habit and glossy, dark green foliage. Thrives in full to part sun and prefers slightly acidic, well-draining soil. It typically matures to a height and width of 4 to 6 feet, though it can be pruned to maintain a smaller size. This makes it ideal for foundation plantings or hedges. While not a prolific berry producer, Compacta Holly can produce small, black berries in the winter. These berries are not particularly abundant and may not appear on all plants, but they can add a touch of winter beauty to your landscape.
