AMERICAN HOLLY Syambolce of Christmas 
BEAUTIFUL THE YEAR ’ROUND 
ILEX OPACA, (Mascula and Femina) 
The American holly has the hardiness and beauty of its English cousin. 
Given adequate moisture, it will establish itself even in mediocre soil and 
grow to tree-like proportions. Whether our holly holds the supernatural 
power attributed to the species by the ancient Romans—the ability to 
freeze water, repel lightning, and quiet unruly animals—is doubtful. It 
will, however, highlight your garden with the legendary grace of scalloped 
green foliage and scarlet berries that provide a twelve-month hint of 
Christmas. We offer both sexes to assure pollination.
