The story of this new holly variety begins in 1989 at Evergreen Nursery in Poplarville, Mississippi. A Mary Nell Holly produced a surprise seedling through open pollination. This chance discovery would eventually become a prized holly known for its unique characteristics. The Oakleaf Holly, also commonly called Oak Leaf and Conaf Holly, stands out for its exceptional branching habit and vibrant winter display. The Oakleaf Holly boasts a superior branching structure. Its dense, pyramidal form develops strong, well-spaced branches that readily support the weight of its impressive foliage and fruit. This improved branching not only creates a more aesthetically pleasing silhouette but also reduces the need for pruning, making it a lower-maintenance choice for gardeners. The Oakleaf truly shines with its magnificent foliage. Larger than most hollies, its glossy, deep green leaves hold a special distinction. Measuring 3 to 4 inches wide and 4 to 6 inches long, they showcase the characteristic lobed shape reminiscent of oak leaves – hence the “Oakleaf” in its common name. The patent highlights the consistent leaf size and lobing pattern across the entire plant, ensuring a uniform and visually striking appearance. The underside of the leaves boasts a lighter, grayish-green hue, adding depth and dimension to the foliage. Adding to its winter charm, the Oakleaf Holly produces a bountiful display of bright red berries in the fall. These clusters of vibrant fruit not only bring a festive touch to the landscape but also provide a valuable food source for winter birds. The patent emphasizes the consistent and abundant berry production across the entire plant, making the Oakleaf Holly a reliable choice for those seeking a visually stunning and wildlife-friendly addition to their garden.
