Enhance your landscape with the delicate charm of 'Soft Touch' Japanese Holly, Ilex crenata 'Soft Touch'. This compact, evergreen shrub is an elegant choice for gardeners in USDA zones 5-9 who desire a touch of greenery without the sharp edges commonly associated with hollies. 'Soft Touch' features small, soft-textured leaves on dense, rounded forms that respond well to shaping, making it an ideal low hedge or border plant. It's an excellent alternative to boxwood, offering a similar look with potentially fewer pest issues. What makes 'Soft Touch' Japanese Holly unique? Unlike its prickly holly cousins, 'Soft Touch' boasts soft, pliable leaves, making it a friendly option for areas with foot traffic. Its manageable size and slow growth rate also mean less frequent pruning, perfect for low-maintenance landscapes. Listing is for one (1) 'Soft Touch' Japanese Holly plant, sold bare-root from a 3-gallon pot. We ensure your holly is carefully packaged bare-root to guarantee a healthy start when it arrives at your doorstep. Planting Instructions: Select a spot with full sun to part shade that has moist, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Dig a hole about as deep as the root ball and twice as wide to encourage root growth. Place the holly in the center of the hole so that the top of the root ball is level with the ground. Backfill the hole with soil, tamp down gently to secure the plant, and water thoroughly. 'Soft Touch' is relatively drought-tolerant once established, but it's important to keep it well-watered during the first growing season to ensure a strong root system. Please note: We hold a nursery license and are able to ship live, bare-root plants to all states except CA, OR, LA, and AK.
