Japanese Holly Fern is native to Korea, China, and (of course!) Japan, so it tolerates our hot and humid summers beautifully. It thrives in consistently moist but not poorly draining soils, and remains evergreen.
Slow growers, Japanese Holly shrubs may live to over 80 years of age. There are hedges in Japan that have been maintained for so long and have become so dense that they can be walked upon and you would not fall through. Japanese Hollies grow from 3 to 15 feet tall, depending on the variety. A typical shrub will spread 2 to 10 feet and have a dense rounded habit. Japanese Holly leaves are small and broadly oval, 1/2 to 1 inch long, up to 1/2 inch wide. They have fine-toothed edges rather than the distinctive-spined leaves of most Hollies. They are a glossy dark green above, lighter beneath. Leaves of some varieties are slightly cupped.
