Ilex crenata 'Sky Pencil' is a striking evergreen shrub celebrated for its narrow, fastigiate growth habit that forms a tight, pencil-like column. Reaching heights of 6 to 10 feet while staying only 2 to 3 feet wide, it features small, glossy, deep green foliage that remains vibrant year-round. Ideal for vertical accents, narrow hedges, or containers, it thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers acidic, well-drained soil. This urban-tolerant holly is perfect for tight garden spaces.
