I've just been given a holly bush and want some growing instructions,
please. I live several kms from the coast, in suburban Perth, WA. Best grown in a pot/ground, sun/shade, feeding requirements, etc? Thanks. |

They need full sun to get a nice shape. Are susceptable to scale insects. The leaves are prickly when dry and are not nice to walk on barefoot. This one made my list of a plant planted in the wrong position is a weed. Good luck!lol Richard |
