Holly with red berries
White flowers in the spring, red berries in the autumn. Pretty as a picture! That's the holly 'Golden King' (Ilex altaclerensis) as a standard tree. The leaves are glossy green with golden yellow edges. Place the plant in a pot on the patio. We may not be able to eat the berries, but the birds can! And they will be keen to pay the bush a visit. The holly is winter-hardy.
Position the plant in a sunny spot. The holly prefers well-drained soil. Keep the soil slightly moist at all times, however, the plant can also handle being dry for a short period.
