ILEX opaca 'Steward's Silver Crown'
|
Description: Plant this instead of the less-hardy (and deer favorite!) variegated English holly. 'Steward's (AKA Stewart's) Silver Crown' is an unusual variegated selection distinguished by creamy white margined leaves. The variegation around the edge of the leaf is variable, with white sometimes overlaying green areas producing a grayish marbling effect. Smaller and slower-growing than the species, it should be pruned when young to produce a fuller plant.
