Hollies

This book is the first definitive work in English, an authoritative reference to all the hollies in cultivation, describing many of the more than 800 species, 30 deciduous any 780 evergreen. The book is divided into four parts: the first covers landscaping and orcharding, the second includes botany and morphological characteristics, the third is an encyclopedia of cultivars and species, and the fourth offers techniques on cultivation, hybridization, and propagation.

First sentence: There are few groups of trees and shrubs that possess such a fascinating and diverse background as do the plants belonging to the genus Ilex or, as they are more commonly called, hollies.
