Plant Description

Quercus ilex, also known as the Holm Oak or Evergreen Oak, is a majestic tree native to the Mediterranean region. This evergreen species showcases handsome, leathery leaves with a dark green upper surface and a silvery underside. Quercus ilex trees are renowned for their adaptability, tolerating drought conditions and thriving in full sun. While they can eventually grow into large trees, young Quercus ilex 15-60cm specimens are ideal for planting in gardens or landscapes. Their dense foliage and attractive form make them a popular choice for creating hedges or screens. With proper care and suitable conditions, Quercus ilex will grace your outdoor space with its timeless beauty for years to come.
