Quercus Ilex Tree

Quercus ilex

Quercus ilex, commonly known as the Holm Oak or Evergreen Oak, is an evergreen tree with lush foliage.

The Holm Oak will typically grow to 15 m tall and 10 m wide with a rounded, dense crown. Quercus ilex is often grown as a specimen in extensive gardens and parks, but is also well-suited to Mediterranean-themed gardens.
