Fabulous standard patio trees, and a variety we're sure very few of your neighbours will be growing - expertly shaped and attractive 'Blue Maid' Holly Trees.
These evergreens look exceptional regardless of the season, featuring a scattering of tiny white flowers in spring. Leaves boast the look and texture we have come to expect of hollies, but are thankfully less spiky, with a distinct contrast between light green undersides and deep blue-green tops.
'Blue Maid' is a female variety of the blue holly, so when grown near a male alternative can produce bright red autumnal berries. Perfect topiary specimens with branches that hold onto leaves far better than others, resulting in dense heads of foliage. Grow in pots or borders for much-needed height or plant multiple together for an unusual hedge.
Plus, these tough and hardy trees aren't easily damaged, with top tolerance to British winter conditions. 'Blue Maid' can withstand temperatures down to -27C without any weather damage, with just an annual trim needed to keep them in shape.
What's more, these make beautiful gifts for loved ones, and we'll even do all the wrapping for you! Each wrapped in a brown hessian bag with a green fabric bow.
Supplied as a pair of established standard plants, approximately 80cm tall and gift wrapped, ready to plant or gift.
Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.
Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.
We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.
Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.
Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.
Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
