Nellie Stevens Holly Shrub

Ilex X 'Nellie R. Stevens'

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!

My 1st order - so impressed. Thank you!

Just received my first order of a Nellie Stevens Holly. I couldn't be more impressed. It's beautiful. The quality of the plant and the care in packing is exemplary. I can't wait to go plant it. Highly recommend.

Wonderful Buy!

My tree's arrived yesterday. In wonderful condition. They're beautiful. I cannot wait to plant these. I'm planning to build a wrought iron fence and plan to plant these beauties in front of it.

Good looking plants

Good. Quick delivery. Some plants were shipped contrary to box directio. “This side up”. This was probably a shipper error and not the provider.

Great place!

WIsh I had found this place sooner instead of buying much smaller plants for more at other sites! The holly bushes arrived in excellent condition with very speedy delivery. I have since ordered other varieties (roses, wax myrtle, rhododendron) bushes for a privacy screen. All are in great condition and thriving. I have recommended this place to a friend and wouldn't hesitate to buy again or recommend.
