standard holly tree
A standard holly tree is a stunning addition to any New Zealand garden, offering year-round interest, architectural form, and classic elegance. Characterised by their neat, rounded heads atop a clear stem, standard holly trees work beautifully as statement pieces in pots, formal borders, on patios, or as stylish entranceway accents. With their glossy evergreen foliage and charming, often red berries, standard hollies are valued for both ornamental beauty and wildlife attraction.
Ilex aquifolium Angustifolia
