or be kept in its tub and used again for 
future embellishment of the dwelling in- 
doors or out. 
Our illustration shows one in a tub 
unusually full of berries. Such a one 
always sells well, because the berries 
are the chief concern, though when not 
so heavily berried as this is the leaves 
would be larger and more abundant. 
In this case our plant has overdone it- 
self in producing berries, hence its 
scant foliage. 
All hollies are not berry bearing, 
some have male flowers only, some fe- 
male, while others have perfect ones. 
Hence in procuring one it must be seen 
to that it is berry bearing, or take the 
chances of what kind it may be. Even 
when it is one with berries it does not 
follow that it is a perfect flowered one; 
it may be a female which had been fer- 
tilized with pollen from another plant, 
but, of course, it is certainly not a male. 
Another red berried evergreen holly 
is the Ilex corunta, a handsome foliaged 
species from Japan, which, unfortun- 
ately, is not hardy enough for general 
cultivation North. It has stood out
