| Hollies |
I've had hollies on the property since the house was built. There are
two huge variegated English hollies in the side-yard garden, but I've never seen
the need to give them their own page on the web site. As part of the
rebuilding of the side-yard garden in 2010 after the tree fell, the landscaper
put in three China Girl hollies. These have a much darker leaf, almost
bluish, and will supposedly bear a beautiful crop of red berries. So, time
for a new page!
Here
they are, in the rebuilt foundation bed.



Here are the old English variegated hollies.


Though April isn't the time of year I expect to see red berries on a holly, the
English variegated holly sometimes gets confused!

In early May 2011, it's become apparent that only one of the China Girl hollies survived the horrid winter. The other two will be replaced.
