Ilex crenata 'Stokes'
Ilex crenata 'Stokes' is a neat, compact evergreen shrub and an excellent alternative to Buxus. It forms dense, small-leaved green foliage that keeps its shape all year round, providing structure and definition in the garden. In spring, inconspicuous white flowers appear on this male plant, adding subtle seasonal interest.
Well-suited to low hedging, edging, or container planting, ‘Stokes’ is especially valued for topiary, where its tight growth responds well to clipping and shaping. Hardy and reliable, it thrives in a wide range of soils and is an ideal choice for formal gardens, parterres, or decorative containers.
