Blue Prince® Meserve Holly is an excellent pollinator for most of the Blue Hollies because of its lengthy bloom period.  The foliage is somewhat spiny, with beautiful lustrous blue-green foliage set off by dark purplish stems.  Ilex x meserveae Blue Prince® is evergreen and compact, and does not need a lot of pruning to keep it neat.  Like its matching relative, Blue Princess®, it makes an excellent hedge.  In the winter the foliage takes on a somewhat purple cast.
