Ilex Opaca—Male. American Holly. Heavy deep 
green. Perfect foliage that will make a good ever- 
green for any group. Hollies produce staminate and 
pistillate flowers on different plants. Therefore a 
male plant should be planted somewhere near a 
group of berry-bearing plants to set fruits. All 
other varieties listed in this catalogue are femina 
or berry-bearing. Generally one male plant will be 
all that is needed if placed on the windward. 
Ilex Opaca Merry Christmas. American Holly that is 
vigorous grower with foliage and berries of a very 
good color, and claimed to be extremely hardy. 
Ilex Opaca Ten Oaks. American Holly that has a large 
deep green leaf and oblong, large orange-red berries. 
Heavy fruiter. Unusual and a very beautiful tree. 
Parent tree located near Clarksville. 
Ilex Opaca Xanthocarpa “Merion”. Leaves a pale 
green quite unlike the usual color found among 
American Hollies. The berries are golden yellow 
and quite attractive. Rarely seen. $1.50 each. 
We hope to add to our Holly collection each year, as 
they have become so popular, so look for other new 
varieties next year.
