« ILEX—HOLLIES 5 
We have made an extensive collection of Hollies which 
has required many years of constant effort, because to do 
this, it has been necessary to contact many sources. 
The Hollies are extremely interesting trees (of which most 
of them are) for foliage and fruits, and even shapes or 
forms, are entirely variant. To see a large collection of 
these all near one another, a desire is created to sécure 
every Holly that it is possible to locate. 
All Hollies are not perfectly hardy and some require a 
protected position, even a covering over the plant when 
winter arrives. A number of tenderer kinds can be carried 
safely through the winter if protection is provided. Just 
how far north our collection can be grown completely, we 
cannot advise definitely, so we will try to guide from 
experience here at Kingsville, Maryland. Our winters here, 
have days extremely cold, or below zero, yet in a few 
days following the temperature will rise to warm sunshine, 
and this is what makes it hard in handling plants. The 
warm sun will do much harm and for this reason cover- 
ings should be provided.
