HOLLY (//*'.v) 



We consider the Holly one of the very best ornamental trees 

 or shrubs. Nothing is prettier than one of our American Hollies 

 with great clusters of bright red berries and dark green leaves 

 shining above the snow in winter. The nurseryman who will 

 grow a collection of Hollies to a specimen size will have some- 

 thing he can sell, whether times are good or whether they are 

 bad. There is always a demand for them, and there will be 

 as long as any other plants will sell. We know you who took 

 our advice five years ago to plant Holly will confirm this.

 dark green, not having the usual yellowish tint found in
