Holly Yaupon Pride of Houston

Ilex vomitoria 'Pride of Houston'


This Texas native small tree is most noted for the abundant red berries in fall through winter. The dark green foliage and smooth grey bark are added attractions. The tidy upright tree is perfect for small garden spaces. The variety will respond very well to heavy sheering and pruning making this another great selection for larger topiary. Plant as an accent or in groupings. Pride will shine through. Attracts birds.
