Holly Williams + Dollar General? This new $1 and up decor is pure magic
Holly – specifically the European holly, Ilex aquifolium – is commonly referenced at Christmas time, and is often referred to by the name Christ's thorn. [46][47] In many Western Christian cultures, holly is used as a traditional Christmas decoration, [48] used especially in wreaths and illustrations, for instance on Christmas cards.
For many people, holly is synonymous with English holly because it is the holly most often associated with Christmas. It is a slow-growing, densely branched tree with an erect, pyramidal growth habit.
Holly trees and shrubs vary widely in size, so consider your plant’s mature sizing when choosing a location. Plant them more closely together for a hedge effect, or spread them out for a natural look.
Holly, genus of some 600 species of shrubs and trees in the family Aquifoliaceae, distributed nearly worldwide. Several species are cultivated as ornamentals for their distinctive foliage and red or black fruits, which persist into winter and are popular Christmas decorations.
Key Takeaways Plant holly in spring or fall for best results, ensuring male and female plants are nearby for berry production. Holly plants prefer loamy, well-draining soil with a slightly acidic pH for optimal growth and berry production.
