Ilex glabra 'Chamzin' is more than just a typical shrub. Famously known as the Chamzin Inkberry, this adaptable member of the Holly family boasts a dense canopy of glossy, dark green leaves offering visual appeal all year round.

A sturdy display of nature's resilience, Chamzin Inkberry grows comfortably between 4 to 8 feet in both height and spread. While relishing in full sun to partial shade, it doesn't shy away from varying soil conditions, with a preference for well-drained and acidic soils. Whether it's a hedge border or a foundation planting, its compact, round shape and fascination for minimal care are sure to blend effortlessly into your landscaping needs.
