Ilex verticillata 'Southern Gentleman' is an essential male plant for pollinating female Ilex verticillata cultivars such as 'Winter Red'. Although it does not produce berries, it has glossy green foliage and a dense, bushy habit that makes it useful in hedgerows or mixed plantings. Very hardy and tolerant of humidity, it is often used as a complement in naturalistic designs. Its discreet but essential presence ensures abundant fruiting in neighboring cultivars.
