Ilex crenata ‘Jersey Jewel’ is a jewel of a plant with distinctive structure and foliage that is sure to attract anyone’s attention. Tiny deep green leaves are oval and cup-shaped. They are arranged with an opposite pattern in layers that alternate at 90° on short, stiff branches. With an irregular habit for the framework, ‘Jersey Jewel’ bursts with individuality when used as a companion plant with dwarf conifers. Similar to ‘Dwarf Pagoda’ but with smaller leaves, it enjoys rich acidic soils.
