Holly Golden King

Two confused variegated Holly bushes, confused! I’ll explain later on.
We have three of the variegated Holly bushes Golden King, the one above is in the main border of the back garden. I keep this one well trimmed not allowing it to outgrow this position where it brightens up the border in those dreary Winter days.
Golden King first made an appearance in 1898 in Edinburgh, the result of a cutting from Ilex x Hendersonii.
The beautifully shaped leaves have a golden yellow edge, completely free of spines, making pruning so much easier. This evergreen will brighten your garden in the dullest of Winter days.
This much larger one below which is in full shade in the round garden is left very much to its own devices, only getting a tidy up now and again when it starts to get out of control.
Some years it does produce berries, never smothered with them, although perhaps there would be more if it were planted in a sunnier position. I don’t think Golden King is renowned for producing masses of berries, how does it do in your garden?
The third of these Holly bushes is in the woodland garden, this is where I think it looks at its very best, maintained to a height of about six feet. Last year we felt it was in need of pruning back as it was starting to hide the trunk of the young Acer Griseum. Well I say young but its actually been in the garden for about sixteen years, very slow growing but fabulous peeling cinnamon coloured bark.
Picture below taken on the 9th of January, some of the Ferns are still looking quite fresh.
I mentioned confusion at the beginning of this post, well I know most of you experienced gardeners will be aware that the Holly Golden King, in spite of the name is actually a female plant
