Soft Touch Holly
Ilex crenata 'Soft Touch'Soft Touch Holly is a compact, rounded shrub known for its soft, flexible foliage and clean silhouette. This evergreen variety matures to about 2 feet in height and width, forming a dense, low mound that stays neat with minimal shaping. The foliage is a deep glossy green, and though it resembles classic hollies, it’s softer to the touch and entirely spineless. It works beautifully as a low hedge, edging plant, or filler between larger shrubs. Its restrained size makes it useful in narrow beds, sidewalk plantings, and high-traffic commercial areas where structure is needed without added height.
- Spineless, soft-textured foliage
- Compact form to 2 feet
- Dense evergreen habit
- Excellent for edging and borders
- Clean shape
Soft Touch Holly prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA zones 5-9, it’s a reliable evergreen shrub for structured beds across North Texas.
