ILEX GLABRA DENSA
Grower Notes:
Ilex glabra 'Densa' is commonly referred to as Densa Inkberry Holly. This upright, compact evergreen is noteworthy for its pest and disease resistance. It features lustrous, leathery, dark green leaves that are rounder and wider than the Ilex glabra 'Shamrock'. Small white flowers in spring give way to jet-black fruit which persist through winter - unless the birds get them - providing additional winter interest. This female cultivar will need a male pollinator such as Ilex glabra 'Pretty Boy' to produce its black berries.
Densa Inkberry is easy to grow and takes pruning well. It thrives in full sun to partial shade and rich, acidic, evenly moist, well-drained soils. It is ideal for hedges or screenings and as topiaries or accent plantings.
