Deciduous Holly

Deciduous Holly Shrubs for Sale

Deciduous Holly is a timeless native shrub admired for its year-round beauty and ecological importance. Known for its stunning bright red berries that linger long after leaves have fallen, this plant adds a vibrant splash of color to winter landscapes when most gardens are resting. At TN Nursery, we sell Deciduous Holly in practical 5 packs, with plants ranging from 6 to 18 inches tall. This sizing allows gardeners to establish a hardy stand of hollies that will thrive and grow into attractive, wildlife-friendly shrubs. In spring, Deciduous Holly produces small but nectar-rich flowers that support a variety of pollinators. While honeybees and bumblebees are frequent visitors, what makes this plant remarkable is its appeal to less common species. The Henry’s Elfin butterfly, a rarity in many gardens, uses hollies as a host plant. Their caterpillars feed on the leaves, while adults sip from the nectar. Several native solitary bees, often overlooked in pollinator conversations, are also drawn to these flowers, helping sustain their fragile populations. In addition, uncommon beetles and tiny beneficial wasps utilize hollies for food and shelter, making the shrub an understated hub of biodiversity.

Deciduous Holly 5 Packs – 6 to 18 Inches Tall

Our 5 packs provide an easy and affordable way to plant Deciduous Holly in groups, where their visual and ecological impact is most striking. By fall, clusters of red berries replace the blossoms, standing out against the bare branches and remaining through much of the winter. These berries are more than ornamental—they are a vital food source for birds such as cedar waxwings, robins, and thrushes when other resources are scarce. As a result, planting Deciduous Hollies supports bird populations during critical times of the year. Gardeners also appreciate the adaptability of Deciduous Holly.

Planting Deciduous Holly is a simple way to enjoy vibrant seasonal color while contributing to the health of your local ecosystem.
