A member of the family of plants called Ilex Crenata -- or Japanese Holly -- 'Sky Pencil' is what we refer to as a
cultivated variety, or cultivar for short. Its growth habit gives it the architectural appearance of a pillar or
column.
It is very slender, densely branched shrubs -- one of my reference books describes it as "telephone pole
oriented." The leaves are very nice, dark shiny green; it will produce berries if there is a male holly plant
nearby to pollinate it. The plants will eventually reach 6 to 8 feet in height, but less than a foot wide.

In general, Japanese hollies prefer light, well drained soil that is slightly acidic; they can adapt to either sun or
shade conditions.

Sky pencils can be planted in the ground as a single specimen plant, used as a hedge or screening plant, or used
in containers underplanted with annuals for a dramatic formal appearance.
