Do you have American Holly trees that aren't producing the bounty of beautiful red berries you were hoping for? Enter 'Jersey Knight' on his valiant steed! Hollies are dioecious, meaning that male and female flowers are on separate plants. In order for female American Hollies to produce berries, a male American Holly needs to be nearby. 'Jersey Knight' is a dense, upright selection of male American Holly that serves as a wonderful pollinator, increasing berry production and creating more beautiful and beneficial female plants. But 'Jersey Knight' is certainly no slouch in the looks department. With its lustrous, spiny, evergreen leaves and gorgeous form, this selection is a beautiful, deer-resistant addition to any garden.
