Densa Inkberry

$35.00

Latin Name: Ilex glabra ‘Densa

This broadleaf evergreen nativar is a versatile plant that tolerates road salt, seaside conditions, and sandy soils. Great for riparian buffers and rain gardens. Habitat friendly, it serves as year-round cover while its black berries provide an excellent food source for birds.

In-Depth Description

Ilex glabra’s small, broad, evergreen leaves and dense branching respond well to being sheared into hedges, globes, and spires. Deer-resistant and ideal for creating a hedge, native inkberries grow faster than non-native boxwood and provide cover and food for native birds.
