Ilex crenata 'Jenny' Cone | 50-60cm tall | Japanese Holly

Ilex Crenata ‘Jenny’ Cone – Japanese Holly Topiary

Ilex crenata ‘Jenny’ is a compact, female cultivar of Japanese holly prized for its exceptionally fine foliage and naturally dense, mounding habit — making it one of the most refined choices for cone topiary. A proven, blight-free alternative to Buxus, it delivers the same crisp formal lines without any of the disease risk.

Size & Specification

Supplied at 50–60cm tall, these are well-shaped, established specimens with a defined cone profile. Ready to place immediately in a pot or border, with minimal clipping required to maintain form.

Why Choose Ilex Crenata ‘Jenny’?

• Completely resistant to box blight and box tree moth
• ‘Jenny’ cultivar offers particularly fine, dense foliage for a sharper finish
• Evergreen structure and deep green colour year-round
• Ideal for containers, entrances, and formal garden schemes
• Slow, controlled growth — retains shape with just one or two clips per year

Growing Guidance

Thrives in full sun to partial shade in most well-drained soils. Particularly well-suited to container growing on terraces, patios, and entrances. Feed with a slow-release fertiliser in spring and clip lightly in early summer to maintain the cone profile.
