Ilex meserveae Blue Maid 80-100 CM C10

‘Blue Maid’ (Ilex × meserveae) is a female holly valued for its dense, glossy blue‑green, spiny foliage and neat, structural habit. In late spring it bears small white flowers; when pollinated by a suitable male (e.g. ‘Blue Prince’), it produces bright red berries that add winter interest. Grow in full sun or partial shade in moist but well‑drained, fertile soil, preferably neutral to acidic. A fully hardy choice for specimens, evergreen structure and formal hedging; moderate growth with an eventual height and spread within the medium shrub range.
