Ilex x meserveae 'Blue Maid' is
considered one of the hardiest of its type. This broadleaf
evergreen hybrid is fast
growing and forms a shrubby broad pyramid shape. The leaves are
leathery, lustrous
dark green, almost blue-green, with slightly impressed veins. The Blue Maid Holly
produces an abundance of dark red fruits.. It can be grown in sun
to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. Although it will grow
10 to 15
feet high, it can be pruned to maintain a desired size and shape. Blue Maid Holly is excellent used in a foundation planting,
mass planting or shrub border.
