Trial: Woody

Years Trialed: 2004, 2005

Good Qualities

Year 1

Great foliage color.

Year 2

‘Winter Gold’ hold up to heavy frost. Reds my hold out until winter Xmas sales, Nov 15th.

Problems

Year 1

None

Year 2

In general, I have trouble getting Ilex to grow well for me. This cultivar is no exception. It is still a “new” planting to me, but I would like to see more vigorous growth from this plant. I didn’t get enough growth to do any cutting this year.; No fruit set, Leaves. Poor pollination? Some leaf spot.

Postharvest

Year 1

One trialer noted a vase life of 7days.

Year 2

None

Comments

Year 1

Too soon to tell much about this cultivar.

Year 2

Similar to ‘Winter Red’ or ‘Berry Heavy’; I’m going to try ‘Southern Gentlemen’ and ‘Jim Dandy’ males next year. I may have ‘Early Male’ and its not working.
