HOLLY (Ilex) 



For many years we have been urging nurserymen to grow 

 more holly. Fifteen years ago there was not very much de- 

 mand for holly. If you will refer to our catalogs about that 

 time and since, you will find we said, "The nurseryman who 

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

 something 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." 



Try to buy nice holly now, see how scarce it is. We find 

 demand increasing each season.
