Burford Holly Shrub Care
View Full Planting & Care Instructions
Sunlight Plant your Holly in an area with full to partial sun - at least 4 hours of sunlight daily.
Watering Water weekly, or more often in extreme heat. Water when the soil is dry 2-3 inches down.
Fertilizing Fertilization isn't required for your Holly, but you can apply an evergreen fertilizer in the spring as needed.
Vigorous, Upright Growth + Rich Evergreen Foliage
Why Burford Holly Shrubs?
Known for its rich evergreen foliage and abundance of red berries, the Burford Holly is the most popular variety of its kind for good reason. Particularly suited for warmer climates, it's dense and layered in a natural upright form, ideal for natural hedging that's vigorous and full.
And its fast growth merges with deer resistance for an amazing combination. Plus, even though it’s a heavy producer of large, bright red berries, it doesn’t attract pesky deer. The Burford brings only graceful wildlife, like butterflies and birds, for an eye-catching show...and it doesn't need a pollinator.

Pollination Info
Burford Holly Shrub Pollination
This holly is a female-only cultivar only and will not need a male holly in order to produce berries. One holly will produce berries, but will still benefit from other hollies planted nearby.
Planting & Care
2. Watering: Water your Burford weekly, or more often in extreme heat. If you’re not sure when to water your shrub, simply check its surrounding soil down to about 2 or 3 inches. If the soil here is dry, water your Burford.
3. Fertilizing: Feed your Burford with a general-purpose or evergreen specific fertilizer, before new growth begins in spring.
4. Pruning: If you want a neater appearance for your Burford, prune or shear annually in winter to shape it.
