Description

A superb holly that you can grow as a large shrub or remove lower branches to form a very attractive small tree 15 to 20 feet in height, the Oakland Holly is admired for its distinct and handsome oak leaf-shaped leaves that emerge a burgundy color before maturing to a rich olive-green. The Oakland Holly is perfect for framing the corners of homes and other structures or in privacy screen plantings. It is self fruiting holly that does not need a pollinator to produce its abundant, bright red berries.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 15 to 20 feet tall and 10 to 15 feet wide (depending on pruning), the Oakland Holly is ideal for use as a specimen, in groupings, or in single or staggered rows to form a solid privacy screen. It is excellent for framing the corners of tall homes or other structures. Great for use around swimming pools and other outdoor living and recreation spaces. The abundant crop of berries make it a welcome addition to bird and wildlife gardens and is a fine addition to holly gardens, cottage gardens and formal gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 7 to 8 feet apart for solid privacy screens and hedges; 18 feet or more apart for space between trees

Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 6a, where this Holly is not reliable winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.

Growing Preferences

The Oakland Holly is exceptionally easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained acidic soil of average fertility and full sun to part shade. Alkaline soils result in chlorosis (yellowing of leaves) which can be corrected by the application of chelated iron and/or soil sulfur. More berries are produced in full to mostly sun however you can expect a good crop even with some shade. Four hours of direct sunlight per day is suggested. Minimal if an maintenance when left to grow natural. That said, many landscapers will perform an annual pruning to maintain a more formal appearance or to control size.

Important Note: Any heavy pruning after spring flowering will reduce or eliminate berry production.
