Sky Pencil Holly Narrow and Upright Evergreen
Sky Pencil Holly Narrow and Upright Evergreen
Sky Pencil Holly (Ilex crenata 'Sky Pencil') is a narrow, upright evergreen that delivers height and screening in garden beds just one to two feet wide. Growing slowly to four or ten feet tall, the shrub maintains a uniformly skinny base without spreading laterally. Glossy dark-green foliage covers the tight vertical branches year-round, requiring only light pruning to preserve its naturally compact silhouette.
This columnar plant resolves tight landscaping constraints by providing reliable winter structure where traditional wide hedges would crowd walkways or foundations. Position single specimens as standalone accents, place matched pairs to frame entryways, or space multiples closely along fence lines to knit into a seamless vertical barrier. The variety demonstrates stronger deer tolerance than arborvitae, though complete animal repellency is not guaranteed.

Great product and delivery
Really nice soil and awesome service
Never used because I ordered the wrong Water Filter. Mike was very helpful with the return and refund. Excellent Customer Service.
Great service. Soil is what I wanted and it off loaded exactly where I asked.
Plants are doing really well with this soil. Deep and rich looking soil, plants seem really happy. Much more cost effective (and no plastic bag waste) compared to buying bags of soil mix from a store.
The quality of the craftsmanship is superb! My formula one fan absolutely loves it!!!!
Worked like an absolute charm!
These markers were perfect for ones that we were replacing. The quality is great and they seem sturdy. The gold detail stands out and is visible from a distance. Shipping was very fast.
Good solution. The little flies have disappeared. We were sure to mist/moisten the surface of each plant once a day for 4 or 5 days, after the initial application of the nematodes, to keep the little guys mobile and able to get to any remaining eggs. So, go for it!
Plant was well packed and shipment was very fast. Received a very nice fully rooted plant in the pot!
The organic garden soil is doing very well in my garden bed. The company was professional, nice, and accommodating to my needs. They provide many types of things for your landscaping at a reasonable price.
