New leaves emerge a bright yellow in spring over dark emerald green mature leaves. The more sun it gets the brighter the leaves, so we suggest full sun, which is 7 hours or more of direct sunlight per day. Beneficial pollinators will enjoy the tiny white flowers in spring, which are followed by LOADS of brilliant red berries in fall persisting through winter, with no need for a pollinator. Very adaptable, Sunny Foster is very easy to grow with very little if any maintenance, unless of course you want to trim it occasionally for a more formal appearance.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing 15 to 30 feet in height and 8 to 15 feet wide (depending on pruning), the Sunny Foster Holly is ideal for use as a specimen or to frame corners of tall homes and other buildings, or in privacy screen plantings or to delineate a property line or line a drive. Also suitable for use in containers and to decorate as an outdoor Christmas tree. A fine addition to yellow theme gardens, holly gardens, wildlife gardens, beneficial pollinator gardens, bird and wildlife gardens, and formal gardens if you want to keep it trimmed to a tight, more formal pyramid.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eSuggested Spacing:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e  7-8' for solid privacy screens and hedges;  18' or more for space between trees\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrowing Preferences\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sunny Foster Holly is exceptionally easy to grow. It adapts to many soils preferring a moist but well-drained acidic soil of average fertility. Foliage color will be brighter and more berries produced in full to mostly sun however you can expect a good crop even with some shade. We suggest 7 hours or more of direct sunlight per day. It is a very low maintenance tree. That said, if a tight, more formal shape is desired it can be trimmed a couple times a year, though doing so might remove the berries. Because it forms a dense pyramid on its own, we only selectively prune to remove a stray stem here or there that might be spoiling the shape. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eImportant Note:\u003c\/span\u003e  Any heavy pruning after spring flowering will reduce or eliminate berry production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHelpful Articles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClick on a link below to get helpful advice from our experts on how to plant and care for a Holly tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow To Plant A Holly Tree In The Ground Or In Pots\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow To Prune A Holly Bush Or Tree\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow To Fertilize \u0026amp; Water A Holly Tree\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePrivacy Screen Design And Planting Tips\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlant Long \u0026amp; Prosper!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeet The Wilson Brothers \u0026amp; Staff\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eQuestions?\u003c\/span\u003e  \u003cspan\u003eContact Us \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48142671577242,"sku":"D2LSC 785751254","price":55.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0751\/3263\/3242\/files\/ilex-attenuata-sunny-foster-tall-holly-4.jpg?v=1779908495","url":"https:\/\/plant.hcgardenus.com\/products\/sunny-foster-holly-3-gallon-pot","provider":"Royal Horticultural Society","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
