The Emily Bruner Holly was discovered and introduced by nursery owner Don Shadow while he was a student at the University of Tennessee. It is a hybrid between the Burford Holly and Lusterleaf Holly and it is known for its beautiful dark green, spiny leaves and its abundance of bright red berries in the fall and winter. Surprisingly low-maintenance, the Emily Bruner Holly thrives in various conditions. It adapts well to a range of soils, tolerates both full sun and partial shade, and boasts impressive cold hardiness. With minimal pruning required, this holly offers enduring beauty without demanding constant attention. If you are looking for a beautiful, low-maintenance evergreen shrub or small tree for your landscape, the Emily Bruner Holly is a great option.
