East Palatka Holly
The East Palatka Holl is an evergreen that can be used as a hedge, a privacy screen, or an accent tree. It can grow to 30-45 feet in height with a spread of 10-15 feet. It grows in an asymmetrical, pyramid shape at a moderate rate and does well in full sun to partial shade. The foliage consists of oblong green leaves that have a spiny margin and the flowers are white, cream, or gray with red berries that attract birds. The tree is low maintenance requiring very little pruning and having a high tolerance to droughts and pests.
A perfect choice for privacy screening along the property perimeter or as a stand-alone specimen. Birds love this tree for the food source as well as nesting.
