A pyramidal, upright, blue holly with super shiny leaves and an abundance of red fruits all winter from Kolster B.V. in The Netherlands.

Columns of lustrous, evergreen leaves hold large clusters of showy, red berries from mid-fall to late winter, just in time for holiday decorating. Ideal for screening, this narrow grower is suited for urban settings where larger hollies would be crowded. Plant in groupings to create a hedge, and don’t forget to include a male pollinator, so Ilex Amore is able to produce its showy fruit! Amore matures at 8 feet tall and 4 feet wide.

Compared to Dragon Lady, Amore is a fuller plant and has much larger clusters of fruit. Amore also grows faster and needs less shaping than other upright blue hollies.
