Red Beauty Holly is a dense, upright, conical-shaped evergreen shrub known for its glossy, dark green foliage, which will produce an abundance of bright red berries in the fall and winter.

At mature height, it can grow to 7-10 feet tall and 4-5 feet wide.

To encourage berry production, this Red Beauty variety will need a male pollinator such as Blue Prince Holly, Blue Boy, or Blue Stallion planted nearby.
