Ilex vomitoria, commonly Dwarf Yaupon Holly, is a woody perennial. This is a compact, rounded shrub that grows 3-5 ft. tall and 3-6 ft. wide. It does best in full sun to part shade, but will produce more flowers in the sun. This is an evergreen that can be used as a hedge barrier, spreading more wide than tall. It can withstand a heavy pruning, and sometimes used for topiaries.
