Ilex x 'Liberty'
Liberty Red, another of the red holly series trademarked by Mitch Magee, is a dense, upright, pyramidal shrub (or small tree).
With its dark-green foliage and red berries, it is an excellent choice for winter color. Dense, evergreen shrub with dark lustrous green, deeply serrated leaves that are set along dark stems.
In the fall, clusters of bright red berries decorate the foliage. Use in mass plantings or as a hedge to add interest to the landscape.
Zones: 6 to 9
