Nellie Stevens Holly

Ilex X 'Nellie R. Stevens'

Why Nellie Stevens Hollies?

The Nellie Stevens has soared in popularity. Why? Well, for starters, it's the ideal selection for both hedging and privacy screening.

  • Grows in partial sun or shade.
  • Nellies stay deep green year-round, unlike other hedge trees that brown out in heat and drought.
  • You control how they grow - whether that's naturally into a dense, pyramidal shape that matures at 15 to 25 feet in height, or pruned into a tall box hedge.

Popular Hedge for Complete Year-Round Privacy

Why Nellie Stevens Hollies?

The Nellie Stevens has soared in popularity. Why? Well, for starters, it's the ideal selection for both hedging and privacy screening, especially since it grows up to 3 feet each year.

Plus, it thrives on neglect. No green thumb is no problem since they grow in sun or partial shade. And you'll appreciate how these holly trees stay deep green year-round, unlike other hedge trees that can brown out during either the summer heat or mild droughts.

Plant each Nellie Stevens Holly 5 to 6 feet apart for a living wall that gives you complete privacy, no holes and no gaps. You control how they grow - whether that's naturally into a dense, pyramidal shape that matures at 15 to 25 feet in height, or pruned into a tall box hedge.

And because they grow as much as 2 to 3 feet per year without pruning, they're truly one-of-a-kind. Furthermore, during the winter months, you'll enjoy the Nellie Stevens' red berries against its deep green foliage. Clip off a few branches to decorate your home for the holidays. Dazzling, graceful wildlife also emerges since those berries attract an array of birds.

But the best part? We plant, grow and nurture our Nellie Stevens for best results. That means you get effortless, amazing-growing benefits without hassle on your part. Once your Nellie is shipped to your door, it's ready to grow and adapt easily in your own landscape.

You won't find a better privacy screen at such a low price. These will sell out shortly, so hurry and grab a few Nellie Stevens of your own!

The plants arrived quickly but

The plants arrived quickly but bounced around the inside of the box. When I opened it there was some dirt and the 3 small trees were smashed to one end. I hope they’re fast growing cause they are so tiny.

Healthy Nellie Stevens!

Excellent customer support. Packaged perfectly. Taller than expected. 3-4’. We planted 8 for privacy hedge next day with root growth hormone in native soil just before snow next day and freezing temperatures in January, NJ. A week after thaw, still healthy and green. Added more top soil back fill. Compost/mulch tomorrow. Will do everything possible to keep them alive. Fingers crossed and dirty! I will be in touch with Fast Growing Trees in early spring for further advice.
