💡 Care Tip: Plant your Nellie R. Stevens Holly starters in well-draining soil and water consistently while their root systems become established. For a dense privacy screen or hedge, provide enough spacing for each plant to develop while eventually filling the desired area. Full sun generally supports dense growth and good landscape performance, although the plants can tolerate partial shade. Mulching around the planting area can help conserve moisture and protect young roots, but keep mulch away from direct contact with the stems.
