Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

Dahoon Holly, scientifically known as Ilex cassine, is a beautiful evergreen holly tree native to the southeastern United States. Here's some information about Dahoon Holly:

  1. Appearance: Dahoon Holly is known for its glossy, dark green leaves that have a slightly serrated edge. The leaves are oval-shaped and arranged alternately along the branches. The tree can grow up to 40 feet (12 meters) tall, with a spread of about 20 feet (6 meters), creating a dense and pyramidal shape.

  2. Berries: Female Dahoon Holly trees produce small, bright red berries that ripen in the fall and persist through the winter. These berries are a valuable food source for birds and can add a splash of color to the winter landscape.

  3. Wildlife Attraction: The berries of Dahoon Holly are attractive to birds, providing a food source during the winter months when other food options may be scarce. The dense foliage of the tree also provides shelter and nesting sites for birds.
