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.
What is a Jumbo Nellie Stevens Holly Shrub?
Jumbo shrubs are the most mature shrubs offered at Fast Growing Trees. Thanks to their well-developed root systems and large container size, they provide excellent drought resistance and improved nutrient absorption. Jumbos are ideal for creating immediate privacy and adding fullness to your garden beds without the wait.
Grown in limited quantities, Jumbo shrubs are perfect for homeowners who want fast results and a lasting impression in their landscape.

Good healthy tree
I bought one to see what it was like and then I bought two more and just ordered another one. Nice good and healthy as well as straight and tall, seven gallon is about 5’ tall after getting it in the ground, allowed about a foot of good mixed earth and planting soil underneaths and about 10” all around and watered in layers as I backfilled seeing we’ve been having extreme heat of 100 here in Texas. I’ve bought several plants and trees from fast growing trees this summer Red Oak, Katsura’s and Jasmines all were delivered fast and healthy, trees have been in the ground a little over a week and all have sprouted new leaves already. I’m very happy with the plants and plan on buying more plants and trees in the future, just wish they came with predug holes. I could have bought these locally but most I’ve seen at nurseries here in Texas look heat stressed, fast growing trees were delivered looking like they were just dug up and shipped.

I have found each plant I have received has been very healthy.
