The 'Nuresagi' grows 10-20' tall and 10-15' wide at its full life span, but will most likely stay 8-10' tall and 6-8' wide in the first 10 years of its life. It is faster growing than other Japanese maple varieties and will grow best in organically rich, moist, but well-draining soil. Deep purple-red leaves are this variety's most striking feature, with leaves turning a rich crimson color in the fall.
The 'Nellie Stevens' holly is a popular variety that is often used to create large hedges and screens. It will quickly reach 15-25' tall and 10-15' wide. When planted with a male Chinese holly, it will produce large, orange-red berries that persist through the winter.
