Soft touch Holly shrub
They arrived in great shape look great anxious to get them in the ground and watch them grow.
Soft Touch Holly Shrubs
Soft Touch Holly shrubs are great for small mulch beds. They are hearty and are slow growing so trimming isn't required as often. I now have 8 Soft Touch Holly's and I purchased all of them from Fast Growing Trees. Their plants are always healthy and are packed and shipped with care.
Front Yard Holly to the Rescue
Such beautiful bushes to replace the previous and scuffy hedges that were remnants of the former owners. In time, they'll grow and be easily shaped to present a vibrant front to the house.
Love them!!
Just received four soft touch holly shrubs and they are beautiful!! They were shipped extremely well. Very impressed and I like them so much I am going to order four more for another area in my yard!!
Excellent service.
The bushes arrived in excellent shape and were recently planted in the ground. I look forward to seeing them mature.
