Thompson and Morgan Ilex Holly Golden King Standard Plant in Pot 17cm 2 Pack

The Holly ‘Golden King’ is a truly outstanding choice as a standard tree, ideal for adding a touch of elegance to gardens, balconies, or patios. Imagine these evergreen trees flanking a doorway, creating a stately entrance, or standing alone as a captivating garden feature. ‘Golden King’ boasts self-fertile properties and glossy green foliage edged with vibrant golden yellow, offering year-round visual appeal. Delicate white flowers emerge in spring, followed by bright red berries in winter, a welcome feast for garden birds, attracting them to your garden. Perfectly suited for containers, ‘Golden King’ is remarkably easy to maintain with regular watering and occasional pruning. Use a soil-based compost such as John Innes No. 3 when potting, ensuring the tree is planted at its original soil level and firmly secured. Water generously and position in a sunny or partially shaded spot. These standard Holly trees can also thrive planted directly into borders with moist, well-draining soil. Container-grown plants benefit from regular feeding and watering, and should be re-potted as they grow larger. Prune during the summer months to maintain its shape, removing any damaged stems and trimming the head into a spherical form. Position: sun or semi shade. Expect a height of up to 75cm (29in) and a head of foliage up to 30cm (12in). Supplied as 2 x Holly Golden King in a 17cm Pot with estimated length <1000mm.
