Ilex crenata, Japanese holly in a 15 cm pot. Ilexes are also popular for their hedge-like crown and for their easy shaping. Caring for them cannot be said to be complicated, and it is also a good choice for beginners. It also likes bright, sunny places and moist soil. It tolerates stronger sunlight, but it cannot withstand frost. It should be treated as a coldhouse plant and a room with a temperature of 2-12°C should be provided during the winter rest period. Its wiring is a bit more challenging, because its overgrown branches are practically fragile, so this operation requires more attention. During the growth period, as with all plants, regular fertilizing is important for Ilex. Either in liquid or solid form. Nutrient-deficient Ilexes can be recognized by their faded foliage, while pieces rich in an abundance of nutrients have a deep green crown. Its tiny white flowers develop into smaller fruits during the summer, but they are not very showy.
