Ilex Aquifolium 'Argenteomarginata' (Variegated English Holly) - Shrub - Multi Buy
Dark green leaves edged with cream make this a brighter alternative to Common English Holly.
Silver Holly has less of a Christmassy-feel than the Common English Holly available elsewhere on GardenPlantsOnline, thanks mostly to its colourful, variegated leaves. It's a popular choice all across the UK, thanks to its weather resistance and its ability to brighten up shady corners. A good choice for creating thick privacy screens that will also help to keep out pests (animal or otherwise).
All of our Hedging Plants allow you to style your garden in a range of different ways, not just because of their varied colours, but also because of the way you choose to trim and maintain them. Prune them regularly to achieve a neat, clean form, or let them bush-out a little to create a more natural appearance. Whether you're using a hedge to give your garden some privacy, or as protection from the weather, road and noise pollution, you'll want to choose a plant that complements the rest of your garden's visual appearance. All of our Hedging Plants have evergreen foliage – giving you some pleasant greenery to look at all-year-round.
