Abstract
‘CR195-115’ is a new and distinct cultivar of interspecific, hybrid evergreen holly distinguished by its small spineless leaves and narrowly conical single-trunk tree form, which is highly dissimilar to other forms of Ilex . Its parentage includes four species ( Ilex crenata, I. aquifolium, I. pernyi , and I. rugosa ), further distinguishing it from other cultivars. Plants are winter-hardy in USDA Hardiness Zone 6b and exhibit a moderate rate of growth, develop an upright, densely-branched narrow conical form of compact size, and produce an abundance of well-displayed shiny black fruit.
