Apollo Winterberry Holly

Apollo Winterberry Holly (Ilex verticillata 'Apollo') is a male cultivar of winterberry holly that is known for its ability to pollinate female winterberry hollies, such as Winter Red. It is a deciduous shrub that can grow up to 6-8 feet tall and wide. Apollo Winterberry Holly has a rounded habit and is covered in dark green leaves that turn a reddish-orange color in the fall. The leaves fall off in the winter, revealing clusters of red berries that persist on the plant throughout the winter.

Apollo Winterberry Holly is a relatively easy-to-care-for plant. It prefers full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It is also tolerant of drought once established.

To care for an Apollo Winterberry Holly plant, water it regularly, especially during the first year after planting. Fertilize the plant in the spring with a balanced fertilizer. Prune the plant in the late winter or early spring to remove any dead or diseased branches, and to shape the plant.

Apollo Winterberry Holly plants are a beautiful addition to any landscape. They can be used as specimen plants, in borders, or as hedges. They are also a good choice for foundation plantings.

Here are some additional tips for growing an Apollo Winterberry Holly plant:

  • Choose a spot in full sun to partial shade with well-drained soil.
  • Plant the shrub in the spring or fall.
  • Water the shrub regularly, especially during the first year after planting.
  • Fertilize the shrub in the spring with a balanced fertilizer.
  • Prune the shrub in the late winter or early spring to remove any dead or diseased branches, and to shape the plant.
  • Mulch around the shrub with organic matter, such as pine needles or wood chips, to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.

One thing to note is that Apollo Winterberry Holly plants do not produce berries on their own. To get berries, you need to plant a female winterberry holly plant nearby. One male plant can pollinate up to 5 female plants.

Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring.

We cannot send ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by department of agriculture.

Note
Please note that the plant will be shipped in its pot, securely fastened with multiple layers of clear tape to prevent any shifting or damage during transit. This ensures that the plant arrives to you with minimal damage, safely and securely. We have been employing this method for shipping plants for several years, occasionally using smaller pots for added safety and convenience during transit. It's important to understand that many plants enter a dormant state during the fall and winter months, resulting in the loss of most leaves and appearing dry or lifeless. This is a natural process, and come springtime, they will begin to regrow and thrive once again. Please be aware that due to regulations set by the Department of Agriculture, there are certain plants and sizes that we are unable to ship to California. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
