Ilex verticillata ‘Jingle Bells’ is a stunning shrub for the winter garden, its bare branches dazzling with scarlet berries for months.

This deciduous, suckering holly takes a background role during the growing season, with its bright green, toothed foliage. Female plants bear small white flowers in spring that are attractive to pollinators. Come autumn the foliage turns golden before falling, leaving bare branches completely studded in brilliant red, long-lasting berries that almost seem to twinkle like jewels through the dark winter months. Branches can be cut and brought into the house for seasonal arrangements and are much sought after by florists. This low maintenance shrub is perfect for borders with neutral to acid soils creating valuable colour and interest through the dullest months of the year. Maximum height: 2.5m (8.2ft). Spread: 1.5m (4.9ft).

Please note that only female plants produce berries when pollinated by a male plant.

Grow in moisture retentive but well-drained neutral to acid soil in full sun or part shade. Not suitable for chalky soils. Water well during the establishment phase.
Feed and water container-grown plants regularly. As plants increase in size they will require repotting into increasingly larger pots. In autumn, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of border grown plants. Avoid mounding mulch up around the stem as this may cause it to rot. Minimal pruning is required, light pruning to remove dead, diseased or misplaced shoots can be carried out in early spring.
