Ilex— Holly 



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 believe there is 

 money in growing them and will increase our stocks as fast as 

 we can.
