Ilex pedunculosa, called longstalk holly, is a species of flowering plant in the genus Ilex, native to central and southern China, Taiwan, and Japan.[2] A lanky shrub or shrubby tree typically reaching 5 m (16 ft) in the garden, it is quite cold hardy (to USDA zone 5a).[3] It gets its specific epithet and common name from its long peduncle (the stalk from which the berry depends). The red berries are relished by birds. It is deer resistant.[3]
