Ilex crenata ‘Jenny’ Ball

This compact, evergreen shrub boasts small, glossy, dark green leaves and is ideal for topiary or low-maintenance hedging. With its dense growth and fine foliage, it serves as an excellent alternative to traditional box, perfect for formal borders or intricate shapes. Ilex crenata ‘Jenny’ thrives in moist but well-drained, humus-rich soil and performs well in both sun and partial shade. Hardy and well-suited to urban environments and containers, provided it does not dry out, it requires minimal care, needing only occasional clipping to maintain its neat, structured appearance—making it a versatile choice for year-round greenery in the garden.
