Where Should I Position My Ilex Nellie Stevens 3/4 Standard Pleached?

The Ilex Nellie Stevens 3/4 Standard Pleached thrives in a variety of conditions but performs best in locations that receive full sun to partial shade. It should be planted in well-drained, nutrient-rich soil to prevent waterlogging, which can harm the roots. Soil that retains moisture effectively is ideal, and using a soaker hose can help maintain consistent moisture levels, especially during drier periods.

Growth and Pruning

The Ilex Nellie Stevens 3/4 Standard Pleached is a moderately fast-growing variety, reaching an approximate height of 6-8 feet with a width of about 4-5 feet. Regular pruning is essential to maintain its refined pleached structure and to encourage healthy growth. Trim any weak, dead, or protruding branches, and clear away debris from the base to keep the pleached topiary looking its best.

Use sharp shears to maintain the clean lines and formal appearance of the pleached form. A thorough trim is best done in late winter or early spring, with periodic touch-ups throughout the growing season to ensure it remains well-maintained and visually appealing.
