Green Luster Holly is a densely compact boxy evergreen shrub with a mounding habit and waxy-smooth dark green leaves. If pollinated, the inconspicuous flowers in spring give way to clusters of black fruits in fall which lasts through winter. Best planted in moist, slightly acidic well-drained soils. Hollies are dioecious and need both male and female plants to produce fruit.
