ILEX GLABRA GALLBERRY INKBERRY
absolutely perfect for the place it was planted

Three of Five survived
I planted five fall 2017. By spring 2019, three have survived and are growing well. I attribute the loss to my own cultural practices and the many deer in my country location. If you have deer pressure, I'd recommend protecting the young plants until they are at least 2 years old. The survivors will be beautiful shrubs and are a good alternative to the blighted boxwoods.

Ilex glabra
It shipped on the day I requested and was well packaged with no shipping damage. It's larger than I expected and even has berries! Very helpful since now I know it's female.

Ilex glabra
The 1 gallon plant arrived very healthy, and my hopes are that it will acclimate well to the low and wetter conditions I've planted it in. This is my second attempt at this wonderful native.

Gallberry
The plants I received were in exceedingly good condition and well packaged. Good, vigorous root balls and healthy foliage. I was very pleasantly surprised in every way. They were shipped exactly when I asked for them. Price was exceptional, too!

Ilex glabra
This plant was really large and healthy; while planting, I was actually able to split into three plants.

healthy shrubs
The inkberries seemed healthy and viable. Both are doing fine so far. This native understory shrub is hard to find, and I am looking forward to watching them grow.
