| Botanical Name | Ilex crenata 'Sky Pencil' |
| Description | An ideal architectural plant for Southeast Texas. 'Sky Pencil' provides strong vertical interest in small gardens or containers. It prefers well-drained soil; in areas with heavy clay, ensure it is not planted in a low spot where water collects. It is highly resistant to Houston's humidity once established. |
| Exposure | Full sun to partial shade |
| Height x Width | 6-10 ft. Tall x 2-3 ft. Wide |
| Water | Regular; prefers consistent moisture but requires good drainage. Do not allow the roots to sit in stagnant water during rainy periods. |
| Zones | 6 - 9 |
| Fertilization | Use a slow-release, slightly acidic fertilizer in the spring. |
| Pruning | Virtually none required to maintain its shape, though the top can be trimmed to maintain a specific height. |
| Deer Resistance | Moderate |
