Hollies (Ilex) belong to the family Aquifoliaceae. There are over 350 species native to North America, Europe, Africa, Australia, the Orient and Brazil. They range in size from dwarf shrubs to huge trees. Both evergreen and deciduous ones are readily available from local nurseries and by mail order.

Broad Leafed Evergreens - Kalmia
Kalmia, or Mountain Laurel, is one plant whose buds are just as neat and lovely as the open flowers.

It is one of the most beautiful of native U.S. shrubs in flower.
