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.
