Notes
'Fosteri' topal holly (Ilex attenuata 'Fosteri') is a shrub for hedges. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. It stays evergreen, so a hedge keeps its green cover through winter. White flowers open in mid to late spring. It grows into a tall, wide shrub, so give it plenty of room.
Pairs well with Bigleaf hydrangea, Autumn fern, and Toad lily.
